A part-time high school scholar is given release time by their
high school to attend classes at Rutgers-Newark for college credit.
Normally, a part-time high school scholar takes one or two 3-credit
courses each semester. If the student ultimately applies and gains
admission to the university, the credits earned are applied
toward the baccalaureate degree and, generally, are accepted as
transfer credits to other colleges. Students accepted into the
program are advised individually as to the appropriateness of
particular courses. For more information, contact the Office of
Admissions at 973-353-5205.
