Transfer credit for work done at another institution is evaluated
after an applicant has been admitted to the college of his or her
choice. Except in certain specific instances, credit is generally
granted for courses taken at an accredited institution of higher
learning, provided the student earns grades of C or better.
Credits will transfer but grades do not transfer into the Rutgers grade-point average.
It should be noted, however, that both Newark College of Arts and
Sciences and University College-Newark accept a maximum of 12 credits
in professional electives. Each college transfers courses differently.
The maximum number of credits accepted from a two-year college is the
number of credits required to earn the A.A. degree, not to exceed 65
credits. Transfer students should note that, generally, credit will not
be accepted for courses in military or aviation science, physical
education activities, secretarial/office science, cooperative
education, and developmental or remedial courses.
For
accounting, finance, management, and marketing transfer students,
upper-level courses in these subjects generally are not accepted for
credit toward the major.
The maximum number of credits
transferred may not exceed 94 credits from a four-year institution, 65
of which may be from a two-year college.
