Grading
Students in Rutgers Business School: Graduate Programs-Newark and
New Brunswick (RBS) are graded in each course at the end of each
semester as follows:
Grade | Definition | Numerical Equivalent | A | Distinguished | 4.00 | A- | | 3.67 | B+ | | 3.33 | B | Good | 3.00 | B- | | 2.67 | C+ | | 2.33 | C | Fair | 2.00 | C- | | 1.67 | D | Poor | 1.00 | F | Failed | 0.00 |
The
graduate faculty accepts for graduate credit only a limited number of
courses in which a student earns a grade of C+, C, or D (see details on
scholastic standing on the Specialty Master's Degree Requirement main page). A grade of F is assigned to students who fail to earn credit
in a course they completed and to students who do not complete a course
from which they have not withdrawn officially.
Additional Grading Symbols
IN (Incomplete).
May be assigned at the discretion of an instructor who believes that an
extension of time is warranted for a student whose work is incomplete
at the end of the semester. Within any period agreed to by the
instructor and the student, incomplete work may be made up, and a change
of grade may be authorized by the instructor. This makeup period may
not extend for more than two semesters beyond the original course
registration (excluding Summer Session). Incompletes generated in a
Summer Session course must be completed by the end of the following
Summer Session. Programs may establish shorter time limits. Students
with two or more incompletes are not permitted to register for
additional courses until one semester after they have completed the
incompletes.
S/U (Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory). For 700-level courses of research carrying credit, in any courses that are listed as 0-zero credit courses, or in regular courses taken as "not-for-credit" (N prefix).
W (Withdrawal). Officially withdrew.
Credit Prefixes
The number of credits appearing on course records and registration cards may be preceded by a letter prefix as follows:
E. Course excluded from credit toward a degree; all course requirements must be completed and a regular grade is assigned.
G. A 300- or 400-level undergraduate course for which credit toward the graduate degree sought has been approved.
K. Course taken as a nonmatriculant; not counted toward a degree.
N.
Course taken "not-for-credit." The final examination is not required. A
final grade of S (satisfactory) or U (unsatisfactory) is assigned.
Graduate students registering for undergraduate courses are subject to
the credit prefix rules of the undergraduate division offering the
course.
Holds
The privileges of registration, advance registration, and receipt of a diploma at commencement are barred to students having outstanding obligations to the university. Obligations may take the form of unpaid monies, unreturned or damaged books and equipment, parking fines, other charges for which a student may become legally indebted to the university, and failure to comply with disciplinary sanctions or administrative actions.
Transcripts
Requests for official transcripts of a student's academic work are accepted only from the student concerned. Requests can be made electronically at https://transcripts.rutgers.edu.
Transcripts of academic work include all courses taken and grades received at the university. Students may request a transcript that includes all courses taken while enrolled as an undergraduate student (matriculating, nonmatriculating, and Summer/Winter Session), all courses taken while enrolled as a graduate student (matriculating, nonmatriculating, and Summer/Winter Session), or all courses taken while enrolled in all schools.
Requests for official transcripts for all current and former students will be processed in the order received. Allow ten (10) days for release. We also cannot accept EMAIL requests.
Currently enrolled students may download unofficial transcripts from the web at https://sis.rutgers.edu/tags.
