The Summer Schedule of Classes was made available on January 16, 2024, and registration for visiting students opened on February 5, 2024.

Registration for Summer Session 2024 is open

Registration for the Summer Session at Rutgers New Brunswick is now open. More than 16,000 students register for courses at Rutgers New Brunswick every summer.

The Summer Schedule of Classes is available on the Rutgers website. Students are advised to check course dates carefully to avoid conflicts, as the WebReg system will not recognize summer scheduling conflicts.

Current Rutgers students may register for the Summer Session through WebReg. Visiting students must fill out a Registration Inquiry Form, after which they will receive an RUID and Personal Access Code (PAC) with further instructions on how to register. Transfer students may register using the Web Registration System.

International students who meet eligibility requirements may apply to take courses in the summer. High-achieving high school students may also take up to two introductory-level Rutgers University courses for credit.

Visiting students must fill out a form

If you are a visiting student, you must complete and submit the Visiting Student Registration Form to initiate the process that will grant you access to the Rutgers registration system (WebReg). This is a simple process. First, visit the registration page and fill out the Registration Inquiry Form. You will then receive an automated email within a few days up to 3 business days containing your Rutgers ID (RUID) and Personal Access Code (PAC), along with instructions on how to register via WebReg.

The Visiting Student Registration Form for Summer Session 2024 opened on February 5, 2024, and visiting students must submit the form by the following deadlines:

• May 20, 2024 - Summer Session I or 12-Week Session
• July 1, 2024 - Summer Session II

Registration after the start of classes requires the completion and submission of the Late Registration Form and approval from an instructor, Chair, or Dean. Late Registration Forms will not be accepted from non-Rutgers visiting students who did not complete the Visiting Student Registration Form by the deadlines above.

Please note that transcripts or letters of approval are not required. Visiting students are responsible for determining that they have completed all the required prerequisites and confirming the transferability of Rutgers University credits with their home institution before registration.

Transfer students can use Web Registration

Registration for the Summer Session at Rutgers–New Brunswick is now open. Over 16,000 students register for courses at Rutgers New Brunswick every summer.

To register, transfer students must first complete a Visiting Student Form. After submitting the form, they will receive an RUID and Personal Access Code (PAC) within three business days, along with further instructions on how to complete their registration.

Students who have already enrolled at the School of Arts and Sciences must take an additional step. Before taking a summer course, they must email the Transfer Advising Office to discuss their plans and obtain approval.

Additionally, transfer students should be aware that they are responsible for ensuring they have completed all necessary prerequisites. They must also confirm the transferability of Rutgers University credits with their home institution before registering. If needed, tutorial videos are available to guide transfer students through the registration process.

School of Arts and Sciences students must get approval

Registration for the 2024 Summer Session at Rutgers New Brunswick is now open. Students who have enrolled at the School of Arts and Sciences must, however, seek approval from the Transfer Advising Office before taking a summer course.

The School of Arts and Sciences is the largest school within Rutgers University, offering more than 100 majors and minors to its students. The school combines excellence in teaching with world-class research, all in an atmosphere of rich cultural and academic diversity.

Students who have enrolled at the School of Arts and Sciences must email the Transfer Advising Office to discuss their plans and obtain approval before taking a summer course. This is a necessary step to ensure that students are on track with their degree requirements and that the summer courses they wish to take are eligible for transfer credits.

The Transfer Advising Office will provide guidance and help students make informed decisions about their summer course selections. They will also ensure that students are aware of any prerequisites or requirements needed to register for their chosen summer courses. It is important to note that the summer registration system does not monitor course prerequisites or time conflicts, so students must take responsibility for ensuring they meet all the necessary requirements.

Additionally, students are expected to pay for summer courses before they begin. This means that financial planning is an important consideration when registering for summer courses. Students should also be mindful of the credit limit, as they may not register for more than 12 credits in the summer, including total courses taken at Rutgers and elsewhere.

International students need to meet eligibility requirements

International students who wish to take courses at Rutgers University during the summer must meet certain eligibility requirements. These requirements include academic documentation, English proficiency, and financial documentation.

Academic Documentation

International students must submit official academic documentation, including transcripts and graduation certificates, from their previous institutions. Students attending international education systems are also required to self-report their courses, grades, grade-point averages, and class rank using the Self-Reported Academic Record (SRAR) form.

English Proficiency Examination Requirements

All international students whose secondary schooling has been outside the United States in a non-English-speaking country are required to demonstrate English proficiency. This can be done through various standardized tests, including TOEFL, IELTS, MET, SAT Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, Duolingo English Test, TOEFL IBT Home Edition, TOEFL ITP Plus China, and the Cambridge Assessment Test. Score reports must be from tests taken within the past two years and submitted directly by the testing service.

English proficiency requirements may be waived for students who have attended an English-medium school and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Students who have earned a grade of B or better in a college-level English Composition course at an accredited U.S. college are exempt from this requirement.

Financial Documentation

International students must provide proof of financial support for their studies at Rutgers University. This includes submitting the International Student Financial Statement (ISFS) and accompanying financial documents, such as bank letters or statements, demonstrating that they or their sponsors have sufficient funds to cover the first year of their studies.

In addition to these requirements, international students must also be 18 years of age or older and have a valid passport valid for at least six months beyond their intended period of stay in the United States. They must also show proof of living expenses, health insurance coverage, and, if currently in the United States, their current immigration status.
