<p>I was hoping to at least get most of my credits "acknowledged" or whatever by Rutgers before class scheduling. How long does it normally take for the credits to go through?</p>
<p>What school are your credits from? I’m wondering if the credits i took at Montclair University will transfer at all. Does anyone know more about the credit transfer?</p>
<p>I’m coming from TCNJ</p>
<p>hey RUTransfer, i am looking to transfer to tcnj or rutgers for next year (havent heard from either yet) but just curious why r you leaving tcnj for ru?</p>
<p>RU has a better engineering program, and I sort of liked the city atmosphere better at RU. I only go off campus here at TCNJ when there’s a party, and parties are usually only a short ten minute walk away. There’s really no other reason to leave campus at TCNJ.</p>
<p>TCNJ doesn’t have as many research opportunities either. If you’re going for business/engineering, I’d say RU is your best bet. Anything liberal learning or teaching related, you’re better off with TCNJ (academic wise anyway). TCNJ’s accolades are all for liberal learning and teaching. Life/Physical sciences, i’ve heard, are at the same level for each school.</p>
<p>Rutgers will not evaluate your credits until you actually enroll into Rutgers. Then you will be invited for a “STAR” Day where you can speak with an academic advisor who will evaluate credits. You can compare the syllabus from catalogs.rutgers.edu and find a similar course. If there are pretty much the same the chances are they will transfer over but obviously I’m not guaranteeing anything</p>
<p>I enrolled as soon as I found out I was actually accepted, which was back around March 13. Is there a specific date for “STAR” day? (I’m not in the NJSTARS program…i’m transferring from TCNJ).</p>
<p>When should I apply to Rutgers if I plan on transferring there for not this year, but the next?</p>

<p>if you are applying for Fall 2010 then get your application in around October.</p>
<p>Thanks! I apply online, right?</p>
