RUTGERS CAMDEN HONORS COLLEGE TRANSFER APPLICATION

The Honors College will admit a small number of transfer students to The Honors College, based on grade average, the application below and an interview. Students should attach a complete transcript to their application of all college courses. If you have any questions about the program, please see Professor Allen Woll, Robeson Library 298 or e-mail awoll@camden.rutgers.edu.

Transfer students are welcome in the Honors College when they arrive on campus, but once students have completed 66 credits they can no longer apply for admission to the Honors College. We recommend that these students apply to departmental honors programs in order to enjoy the honors experience.

[The deadline for consideration for the fall semester is June 15, and for the spring semester, January 5. Please mail or submit the application to the Robeson Library Honors Office.]

Requirements: To be eligible for the program you have a 3.7 average or above.
