Important Notes
General Program
Please note that requirements are subject to change depending on federal and state regulations, particularly in programs leading to certification.
Please be sure to send the required supplemental documents by the appropriate deadline. An application is incomplete unless all supplemental documents are received by the appropriate deadline.
All eligible military Service members are highly encouraged to receive approval from an Educational Service Officer (ES0) or counselor within the Military Service before enrolling at The College of New Jersey. TCNJ is honored to evaluate the applications of our military veterans. Please review this website for more information about the various funding sources available for veterans who attend TCNJ.
Title IX Final Rule: Under federal regulations and compliance with Title IX, the College is committed to maintaining a healthy living and learning community free from all sex or gender-based discrimination. If you believe that you or someone you know has been the victim of sex or gender-based discrimination (including sexual harassment, sexual assault, dating/domestic violence, stalking) while applying to or as a student at TCNJ or wish to learn more about options available, you can make a report through the College’s Title IX & Sexual Misconduct Reporting Link or you can contact the Title IX Coordinator and staff directly at any time through their Contact Us page.

Global Programs
For students interested in learning more about Off-Site Graduate Global Programs (OSGP), please contact OSGP’s Faculty Advisor, Dr. Stuart Carroll, at szcarrol@tcnj.edu or OSGP directly at osgp@tcnj.edu.
International Applicants
In addition to the standard supplemental documents required, international applicants must have score reports submitted for the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) if their native language is not English and must complete the International Student Admissions Handbook for F-1 Students, including an Affidavit of Financial Support.
Furthermore, all students who attended a non-U.S. institution must have their educational documents translated into English and evaluated on a course-by-course basis by an accredited agency regarding the U.S. equivalency of their coursework (see here for an agency listing). An I-20 cannot be issued until the student is officially admitted to The College. Please visit the International Student Services website for more information, including required forms.
Students planning to attend an overseas/international site are not required to complete an I-20 or an Affidavit of Financial Support.
