Credit Transfer
For the purpose of transfer credit, courses taken at another college or university must be approved by the Director of Graduate Studies. It is the responsibility of the student to secure official transcript evidence of these courses and to initiate, with the faculty advisor, the request for transfer of credit. Transfer of credits from another college or university may be considered only after the student is fully matriculated in a degree program.
A maximum of one quarter of a master's degree or graduate level certification program's required credits may be accepted as transfer credits from an accredited college or university, if the courses for which they were earned are similar in purpose and content to those of NJCU and are clearly integrated with the student's program as judged by the student's major advisor and Director of Graduate Studies. Transfer credits must carry a grade of B (3.0) or higher; pass/fail credits are not transferable.
Credits which are seven years old, or older, are not applicable to a graduate program at New Jersey City University.
Credits earned to complete a previous masters degree may not be applied toward a second masters degree at New Jersey City University. However, up to thirty graduate credits in psychology earned at an accredited college or university, other than New Jersey City University, may be accepted as transfer credits toward the combination program offering a professional diploma in school psychology and school psychology certification eligibility.
Should credits be accepted for transfer, the student's advisor will submit a "Graduate Transfer" to the Office of Graduate Studies.
After matriculation, the student is not expected to enroll for a course at another institution except for very compelling reasons and then only with the written approval of the student's advisor. The research component of any major must be taken at New Jersey City University.
