Degrees are conferred by the university upon recommendation of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences-Newark and Rutgers Business School: Undergraduate-Newark. Degrees are conferred three times a year: January, May, and August.
Diplomas and official transcripts are withheld if a student has a hold against his or her record.
It is the responsibility of each student to ensure that all the graduation requirements of the school, including certification of the major, have been
fully met well before the expected date of graduation. Student records are officially closed upon graduation. A graduate cannot improve their
cumulative grade-point average by completing work or taking additional courses after the degree has been conferred.
Inquiries concerning graduation may be directed to an
academic advisor at the Rutgers Business School: Undergraduate-Newark Program Office
