The Writing Program's courses are designed to meet the needs of a wide array of students, from beginning writers to those who seek to become better researchers or refine their technical writing skills. We also offer courses that help students advance their future careers, whether they seek to enter a humanities, healthcare, or business profession, and more!

All of our 100-level courses (College Writing 355:101, College Writing Extended 355:104, and Exposition and Argument 355:103) fulfill the WC core requirement. Students are required to take -- and will receive credit for -- only one of these WC courses throughout their university career. 

Based on the results of the Placement Test, students can place into one of those WC courses or into our English for Academic Purposes (EAP) courses, which are pre-requisites for the WC requirement.

Most of our 200- and 300-level courses fulfill additional core writing requirements. 

 

Students interested in Creative Writing or other English Literature courses should refer to the website for Rutgers English Undergraduate Studies
