Transfer credits: Overview and requirements
<p>The amount of credits and types of courses you’ll need to complete at UW-Whitewater as you work toward your degree will depend on how many transferable credits you have or if you’ve already earned a college degree.</p>
<p><strong>Allowable Transferable Credits</strong><br />Typically, students can transfer in up to 72 credits from a two-year institution, and the additional 48 must be completed at UW-Whitewater.</p>
<p>Additionally, credits earned for courses at the 300- or 400-level (junior/senior) from a two-year institution may be accepted as a general elective.</p>
<p>Some departments or programs require a higher GPA than the 2.0 standard requirements. This is sometimes the case if a student is bringing more than 24 transferable credits to UW-Whitewater.</p>
