You may take certain courses at another institution over the summer or winter sessions (not during the spring or fall terms) and transfer the credit (not the grade) to be applied towards your Engineering degree at Rutgers. A grade of C or better is required for the credits to be eligible for transfer (the grade does not transfer into the transcript/gpa). Courses eligible to be taken outside of RU during the summer/winter include first and second year courses of the engineering curriculum: math, physics, chemistry, humanities/social science electives, non-school 14 tech electives, sophomore level introductory major courses. Junior and Senior level major courses may NOT be taken outside of RU unless failed first at RU.

Who pays for the summer tuition? Summer tuition is paid for by the student. Students can check with the Office of Financial Aid to see if there is any funding available for the summer session.

Summer/Winter courses and Graduation: If a student takes his/her last course(s) outside of RU, the student should be aware that the official transcript must be received by a certain date in order to avoid any delays in graduation date. June 15th (for May graduation), Sept 30th (for October graduation), Jan 31st (for Jan graduation). Please see our graduation webpage for more details: http://coewww.rutgers.edu/oaa/graduation_May.php

Is the course equivalent to the course at RU?
To check equivalencies for NJ Community Colleges, go to NJ Transfer/ARTSYS - https://www.njtransfer.org/artweb/chgri.cgi. For all other institutions or any other transferring concerns, please request advice from Dean Prendergast (Engineering Bldg Rm. B-100, lprend@rci.rutgers.edu ).
If you wish to take a course at a 4 yr institution or an institution outside of NJ, the student must provide a course description for evaluation (printed from the school's website, or copied from their printed course catalog).

Before registering for any course outside of Rutgers, fill out an Authorization for Transfer Credit form. The form must be signed by Dean Bernath, Dean Prendergast, or Dean Rankin. Click here for the form, or pick up a form in Engineering Bldg Rm. B-100. Once the grade has been received at the school external to Rutgers, the student must request (from the external school) to have an Official transcript sent from the external school directly to our office.
