Transfer students may be accepted into the
School of Public Affairs and Administration (SPAA) directly with
indication of a public service major on their initial Rutgers–Newark
application. SPAA students are jointly enrolled in the Newark College of
Arts and Sciences and School of Public Affairs and Administration.
Those applying from outside Rutgers
as transfer students should apply online through the Office of
University Undergraduate Admissions at http://admissions.rutgers.edu,
indicating the public service major within SPAA.
Students
transferring from other schools should consult with admissions
counselors to learn if any articulation agreements are in place to
define which courses at the school from which they are transferring are
acceptable for meeting admission requirements. Please note the
information below on NJ
Transfer.
Comprehensive Statewide Articulation Agreement
The agreement with New Jersey community colleges and New Jersey
public four-year institutions provides a seamless transition from
public associate to public baccalaureate degree programs and supports
the successful acquisition of baccalaureate degrees by transfer
students.
All students transferring with an A.A. or an A.S. degree
from a New Jersey community college within the past three years may
have satisfied all general education requirements. Students may not be
grandfathered into the program. Once a student is enrolled, they may not
return to their prior institution to earn an A.A./A.S. degree. The
A.A./A.S. degree must be completed before enrolling at Rutgers–Newark.
Under extenuating circumstances, a student may be
allowed to take a course at Rutgers–Newark and transfer the credits back
to the community college in order to earn their degree. Students must
get approval in writing from both institutions prior to taking the
course.
NJ
Transfer
Rutgers participates with the NJ Transfer
Articulation System. NJ Transfer is a computerized data information
system designed to ease the transition from these institutions to
Rutgers. Students attending one of New Jersey's two-year colleges can
access the NJ Transfer website to obtain detailed information about
transferring to Rutgers. Students may determine the transferability of
the courses they are completing at their community college.
