When you take classes abroad at a host university or study abroad center, you must obtain approval for this coursework in order to transfer the courses and credit back to UWW. Course approvers vary by college. To obtain approval, fill out the Transfer Credit Agreement (TCA) with the courses you intend to take and what you think they will transfer back as. Use the course equivalency database to find course equivalencies that have already been approved. Then share this form with the appropriate administrators for signing.  <ul> <li><a href="documents/international/TransferCreditAgreementWorksheet.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Download the course equivalency form [PDF]</a></li> <li><a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11iqqV8Ft5PoM-kneYYUip5UQ1YEOoQUHmKJ2a_aPzdg/edit#gid=0">Check the course equivalency database (google spreadsheet)</a></li> </ul> Students are strongly encouraged to seek approval for more credits than they actually plan to take abroad in case of course cancellations, schedule conflicts, etc. The majority of study abroad coursework can be approved by the following appropriate administrators: <ul> <li>Robert Mertens, <a href="mailto:mertensr@uww.edu">mertensr@uww.edu</a>, College of Arts and Communication</li> <li>Kari Pahl, <a href="mailto:pahlk@uww.edu">pahlk@uww.edu</a>, College of Business and Economics</li> <li>Steven Fischer, <a href="mailto:fischers@uww.edu">fischers@uww.edu</a>, College of Education and Professional Studies</li> <li>Susan Johnson, <a href="mailto:johnsons@uww.edu">johnsons@uww.edu</a>, College of Letters and Sciences or General Education</li> <li>Pilar Melero, <a href="mailto:melerop@uww.edu">melerop@uww.edu</a>, World Languages and Cultures</li> </ul> Students must contact the individuals above once they complete the form to get their courses approved. This is due at your predeparture meeting. Please note that, for certain study abroad programs or specialized course areas, students may instead be referred to individual department chairs or other designated faculty members for course approval rather than to the above individuals.
