The online registration system (WebReg) is used for change of registration (add/drop). Refer to instructions sent prior to the start of the semester.
After the add-drop period ends, the only permissible changes of registration are withdrawals from individual courses or withdrawal from all courses. Both actions are allowed without academic penalty, please refer to the RBS MBA and Specialty Master Academic Calendar for dates. The date on which the graduate registrar receives notice of withdrawal from the student governs the academic and financial consequences of the withdrawal. Any student withdrawing from a course after the allotted date needs the approval of the program staff, please contact the your academic program directly. A student who stops attending a course without notifying the registrar will receive a grade of F in that course. No refunds of tuition are given for individual course withdrawals after the drop period ends. A student who withdraws from all courses may receive a partial refund, please refer to the Student Finance Website. Withdrawal of any sort is not permitted during the last two weeks of classes.
At the start of each semester a student may drop or add courses without penalty. Students may drop or add courses without penalty (no fees, no grades,
full refund) provided they are still registered for at least one course.
This applies to all courses regardless of their starting dates. Please contact your program coordinator or director for dates or click
here.
Students may withdraw from a course(s) and receive a W during semester. Please refer to the
calendar for the last date to withdraw from a course(s).
Withdrawing from all courses
Students may receive a partial reduction of tuition and fees based on the date of withdrawal. Please refer to the University Finance and Administration
website.
A change of curriculum within
Rutgers Business School-Newark and New Brunswick (RBS)
requires the approval of the graduate program director and the dean. The transaction is not complete until notice of the approved change has been received from the program director.Students will need to fill out a new graduate admission application.
Change of Status
Students wishing to change their status within a graduate program, such as from nonmatriculated to matriculated, should file the appropriate form with the department.
Any student who has earned a terminal degree in RBS and who desires to continue as a nonmatriculated student should apply for a change of status. To avoid the need for re-enrollment, students in this category should apply without letting their registrations lapse. Foreign students must notify the appropriate office of a change in status.
Re-enrollment or Restoration of Active Status
Students who have interrupted their graduate registration without receiving a degree in the program for which they were enrolled must apply for re-enrollment if they wish to continue in that program. All students who are not continually enrolled for either a fall or spring (summer excluded) must request re-enrollment form by contacting the program director (applicants may request that previously submitted records be used.)
Readmission
Students who have been non-active for an extended length of time and/or who are denied re-enrollment might be required to submit a new application to the RBS Office of Graduate Admissions.
