This is the traditional plan that most transfer students have followed. The additional year may be caused when the prospective student is missing the 3 chemical engineering core courses required in the sophomore year at Rowan as well as essential math (Mathematics for Engineering Analysis), and other courses. Starting in the 2014-2015 academic year, there is a 4 year available program that will require 7 credits of Rowan summer courses prior to starting the third year of Rowan's ChE curriculum.
