Summer Session credits are regularly transferred to many other colleges, however, most colleges require prior approval of transfer credits. Therefore, you should check the transferability of each course with the appropriate official from your college before you register. Please do not send approval forms to Rutgers.

Students are responsible for requesting a transcript to be sent to their home institution. Transcripts may be requested from the Registrar's Office.
