Individuals who do not wish to matriculate and work toward a degree
may enroll in selected courses for two terms. However,
admission is on a space-available basis and students may be
admitted provided they have met one of the following criteria:
1. The applicant has completed an undergraduate degree. The goal
of an applicant in this category is to complete requirements for
graduate school or for professional advancement.
2. The
applicant is a student in good standing at another institution that has
given written permission, specifying the courses to be taken.
3. Students who meet the admission standards, but do not wish to
matriculate at this time, will be allowed to attend for two terms only
and to enroll in no more than 12 credits each term if they remain in
good academic standing.
Nondegree students should complete a
special application for nonmatriculated students. Details concerning
application procedures and policies pertaining to nonmatriculated
students may be obtained from the admissions office. If the
undergraduate degree is from NCAS or UC-N, students may go to the
Office of the Dean of Student Affairs, Hill Hall 312, for a reentry
form at least 30 days prior to the term.
Rutgers, The State
University of New Jersey, also encourages senior citizens to audit
courses on a noncredit, space-available basis. New Jersey residents,
aged 62 and older, may attend classes free of charge under this
program. Those interested in attending should contact the Office of the
Dean of Faculty (973/353-5213).
