A Rutgers education goes far beyond our campus.
If you’re in a Rutgers doctoral program in an arts, sciences, or education field and have completed at least one year of full-time study toward your Ph.D., you’re eligible for the Inter-University Doctoral Consortium: an initiative that lets students from participating schools take classes at several host institutions.
How it works
You’ll register and pay tuition through Rutgers. But while you’re attending courses at a host institution, you’ll be governed by their academic policies (although you’ll still adhere to the Rutgers policy of a one-year course completion window if you receive a grade of incomplete in any course at your host institution).
Host institutions include:
-
Columbia University, GSAS (see special instructions)
-
CUNY Graduate Center
-
Fordham University GSAS
-
Graduate Faculty, New School University
-
New York University, GSAS
-
Princeton University-The Graduate School
-
School of Graduate Studies, Rutgers University
-
Stony Brook University
-
Teachers College, Columbia University
