All matriculated students at the
Rutgers School of Public Health must maintain continuous matriculation from the time of
admission until the completion of all degree requirements. Typically, this is achieved by enrolling in courses
in the fall and spring semesters. (Summer semesters are not required.) Students who do not register for courses must register for Maintaining
Matriculation or a Leave of Absence (which includes student scholar). For more information about a leave of absence,
please see the Leave of Absence policy.
Maintaining matriculation
-
reserves a student's place in the degree program as
a continuing student;
-
ensures that the student will continue to receive
registration materials and any other mailings to enrolled students;
-
allows access to university facilities and services,
such as the library and health services; and
-
enables application for student health insurance, if
needed.
Registering
for Maintaining Matriculation
To
register for maintaining matriculation a student should contact the Office of
the Registrar with approval of their adviser. This registration requires the
payment of a $35 fee, plus the administrative fee, for each semester this type
of registration is used.
