Add / Transfer Into Computer Science Major For Current TCNJ Students

Transferring from another TCNJ program, or adding Computer Science as an additional major

To apply to transfer into the Computer Science program, or add Computer Science as an additional major, students must be in good academic standing, and are required to meet the following minimum performance standards:
(i) CSC 220 – CS I: Computational Problem Solving (grade of C or higher), and
(ii) MAT 127/Calculus A OR MAT 128/Calculus B OR MAT 205/Linear Algebra (grade of C or higher).

Internal transfer applications received by the Department before the Change of Major deadline, as per TCNJ’s academic calendar, will be given full consideration. All applications will be reviewed together soon after the deadline, and decisions will be made within 10-14 days so that accepted students can enter the advising and registration period as computer science majors.

How do I apply to switch into or add the Computer Science Major?

To add the Computer Science major you will first need to complete CSC 220 and MAT 127 both with grades of C or better, and must have a GPA of 2.0 or higher. After you receive your grades for CSC 220 and MAT 127, you will need to complete the change of major application form and email your form to cs@tcnj.edu in order to apply to add the CS major.  This form must be received by the CS Department by the change of major deadline.

Once your form has been reviewed after the change of major deadline, you will be notified of your acceptance status via email.   If you have been accepted into the major, your form will be returned to you via email and you must then submit it to the Office of Records and Registration (recreg@tcnj.edu) for processing.
