The Rowan Transfer Pathway Advantage:
Maximize your credits and shrink your graduation timeline!
Rowan's School of Professional Studies facilitates convenient and cost-effective transfer pathways into Rowan University's degree programs via community college articulation agreements.
Articulation agreements are contracts that outline the transfer of academic credits from one educational institution to another. Following an academic pathway prescribed in an articulation agreement takes the guesswork out of the transfer and credit applicability process, offering transfer students a seamless transition to Rowan (all while saving them time and money!). Community college transfers who follow a transfer pathway and meet all Rowan and program-specific requirements will be guaranteed admission to Rowan University.
Rowan University has community college transfer articulations in place with academic institutions across New Jersey and beyond.

Your Journey to a Bachelor's Degree Starts Here: The Rowan Transfer Pathway Advantage!
Are you planning to transfer to Rowan University? Learn more about our Transfer Pathways below! Following a transfer pathway helps students avoid credit loss and minimize their timeline to graduation.
Traditional transfer articulations are sometimes called “2+2s” because a student following the transfer pathway will typically spend two years at their community college institution, receive an associate degree, and then transfer to Rowan to complete their bachelor’s degree in two additional years.
Want to learn more about our existing transfer agreements in your desired field or major? Review our list of established partner institutions and degree programs below or contact sps@rowan.edu for more information.

3+1 Partnerships
A “3+1” is a special type of transfer agreement that offers community college transfer students flexibility and cost-savings by allowing them to complete the first 3 years of their bachelor’s degree at their starting institution before finishing at Rowan university (this final year at Rowan is often called the “+1 year”).
Currently, Rowan University has established 3+1 partnerships with Rowan College of South Jersey (RCSJ) and Rowan College of Burlington County (RCBC).
