The Bachelor of Science in Applied Physics is a collaborative degree program between NJIT and Rutgers-Newark. This program provides students with a comprehensive physics track, covering multiple key physics disciplines. Students also have the option to pursue a dual major combining Computer Science with Applied Physics or Applied Mathematics with Applied Physics (both BS programs). The current curriculum outlined in the online catalog applies to students who enrolled at NJIT as first-year students during or after Fall 2000. Earlier enrollees should contact the department to determine their applicable curriculum.
The Mathematical Sciences B.S. degree establishes a robust grounding in essential mathematical principles, enabling graduates to utilize mathematical and statistical methods across various professional domains such as R&D, healthcare, technology, finance, and more. Through this program, students develop a solid foundation in both theoretical and practical mathematics, applicable to specialized career paths in mathematics, sciences, computing, social sciences, and business. The program aims to equip students for advanced academic pursuits or professional success in mathematical sciences and associated industries.

Qualification Requirements
All first-year students who apply to NJIT must submit an official high school transcript. When evaluating your application for undergraduate admission, we are interested in understanding how you challenged yourself relative to the curriculum that was available at your school and the trends in your performance-for example, if your grades improved between your first-year and senior year.
We also consider the GPA that is indicated on your high school transcript. We generally look for students in the top 25% of their class. For schools that don't use a ranking system, we consider a 3.0 GPA or higher to be the equivalent.
Partaking in rigorous curricula, such as Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) classes, can give you an additional advantage. The number of semester credits you will receive will depend on whether you earned a 3, 4, or 5 on your AP exams, or a grade of 5, 6, or 7 in IB subject areas. That score also determines which courses you will be exempt from taking at NJIT.
Our test-optional admissions policy was implemented in response to the scheduling challenges faced by many high school students taking the SAT and ACT tests due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Students who have taken the SAT or ACT are encouraged to submit test scores to be considered for endowed scholarships where scores may be required. However, students who do not submit scores will be considered for other scholarships.
Personal Essay
Included in the Common Application is an essay. The purpose of the essay is to assess your writing ability and, more importantly, to learn more about you as an individual. This portion of the application helps us get to know you, assess mutual fit and better understand what you could contribute to NJIT.
Letter of Recommendation
Counselors and teachers provide an external perspective about you as a person and applicant to NJIT. We expect you to provide us with all information pertinent to your application, while your recommender will provide an additional perspective/insight about you as a student.
