Frequently Asked Questions
Is this program right for me?
If you are a
traditional student and have completed or are nearing completion of your
associate degree and want to stay in the Wausau area this program is
for you. If you are a working adult who wants to complete your degree
in a full or part-time basis, this program will definitely suit your
needs.
Where do I begin?
Make an advising
appointment at UWMC students services by calling 715-261-6229. Bring a
copy of your transcripts in order to begin the credit evaluation process
and to determine your course sequence. You will be a UWMC student
until you complete your associate degree. While you are working on your
associate degree you may apply to UWSP and declare your major.
Can I take courses from both campuses at the same time?
Yes.
While you are completing your associate degree, you may enroll in the
core business courses under a special student status without having to
apply to UWSP. However, the sooner you apply to UWSP, the better we can
meet your advising needs and plan for a smooth transfer saving you time
and money.
What if I have bachelor's degree in a field other than business?
Come
back to school and earn your UW business degree! Make an advising
appointment at UWMC students services by calling 715-261-6229. Bring a
copy of your transcripts in order to begin the credit evaluation process
and to determine your course sequence.
How soon can I complete my degree?
This
will vary based on your schedule. Students who have completed their
associate degree and business foundation courses will be able to earn
their bachelor's degree in two years if they attend classes full time.
