Rutgers University evaluates applicants based on academic performance, standardized test scores, and extracurricular involvement. A strong high school GPA, typically 3.5 or higher, is preferred, along with a rigorous course load including AP or honors classes.
SAT scores (1200-1410) or ACT scores (25-32) are considered, though some programs may have higher requirements. Letters of recommendation and a personal statement are also required.
International students must demonstrate English proficiency via TOEFL (79+) or IELTS (6.5+). Some programs, like nursing or engineering, may have additional prerequisites. Transfer students need a minimum 2.5 GPA from accredited institutions.
