Courses taken through Rutgers University:

In most cases, courses taken during high school at Rutgers or through programs offered by Rutgers appear directly on the student's Rutgers transcript and grades are included in the grade point average. There may be instances where specific courses may not be applicable to a School of Arts and Sciences major or minor or Core curriculum learning goals. Upon student request, an E-prefix can be added to courses taken during high school, indicating that the courses do not count into the credit total for graduation nor is the grade computed into the GPA.

Courses taken through NJ Community Colleges:

Under New Jersey state law, certain approved courses in high school may be taken for college credit. For courses taken at New Jersey Community Colleges while the student is in high school, or courses taken at the high school and recorded on a college transcript students can use njtransfer.org to determine course equivalencies. Please note: the transferability of math courses taken prior to enrollment is determined by the results of the Rutgers Math placement test. Students must place into Calculus to receive equivalent credit for any precollege math courses, otherwise, elective credit may be granted.
