<p>I'm currently attending the University of Pittsburgh and I'd like to transfer to Rutgers in order to be closer to home, and I'm curious as to whether or not my GPA would transfer because at the moment I have a 4.0 and I really don't want to have to start fresh again. If anyone knows the policy regarding this issue, please let me know it would be much appreciated.</p>
<p>About Transfer Credit </p>
<p>Most credit evaluations are completed after transfer students have been admitted and have confirmed their intention to enroll. In general, credit is granted for courses taken at accredited colleges and universities if they are the equivalent of courses offered by Rutgers University and a grade of at least a C has been earned. </p>
<p>However, individual courses are evaluated by the faculty (in the case of direct course equivalency) and the school/college (for the transfer of credit when a direct departmental equivalent does not exist) before credit is granted. You may find it helpful to review Rutgers’ course content information in our catalogs and on our NJ Transfer web site (for New Jersey community college students).
if you have any more question contact the office of admission. good luck</p>
<p>If you are applying to graduate school, medical school, etc., grade point average will come from all schools from which you have undergraduate credits. RU itself does not use transfer credit for gpa, but courses can transfer for major and elective credit. Good luck!</p>
