Frequently Asked Questions

Transfer Credits
Transfer students may transfer a maximum total of 90 credit hours from other institutions. Transfer students, therefore, must complete a minimum of 30 credit hours at Rowan University to earn a  degree at Rowan University. All psychology majors are strongly urged to take the majority of their psychology courses at Rowan University. Students should consult with their advisor (see above) before taking courses at other institutions to insure the credits will be accepted by Rowan.
Where can I find my program guide or know which classes to take?

Meeting with your academic advisor is always the best place to discuss which courses to take for next semester. However, if you want to register prior to meeting with your advisor, please consult your DegreeWorks Information. DegreeWorks is in your Banner account (www.rowan.edu/selfservice) – click on Student Tab, then Student Records. DegreeWorks will show you what you have completed and what remaining requirements you have. You can register for next semester based on what you think you will need but be sure to schedule an advising appointment too!  When you meet with your advisor you will be able to make any adjustments needed to ensure you have the correct classes needed for your program.

Check out our advising page for our current program guides.
