For transfer students from UW System or from WTCS institutions, after you've investigated the transfer information for programs of interest, you may want to investigate how individual courses you've taken transfer to UW-Madison. Use the course transfer database(TIS) to determine course equivalency and how transferred courses MAY satisfy the general education requirements at UW-Madison.
Note that individual schools and colleges may have general education requirements beyond the campus-wide requirements. Attention to these requirements is an important consideration and should be discussed with an adviser.
The individual concerns and questions of every transfer students may not be answered by using these web resources. You are encouraged to contact an adviser directly in the school or college of interest to assist you. Thanks again for your interest in UW-Madison!
