Submit the UW System application, available online at: https://apply.wisconsin.edu. Send official transcripts from all post‐secondary institutions attended. Send official high school transcripts if you have not already earned your bachelor’s degree at the time you apply. If any Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate tests were taken while in high school and received a score of 3 or higher, a copy of your score report is required to be considered for college credit. Admissions Requirements The Transfer Admission Requirements state that you are likely to be admitted in good standing if you have a cumulative grade point average of 2.5 or greater. A comprehensive review is completed and everything, including your applicant statement, is taken into consideration when a decision is made. Students transferring having already earned their associate degree with a minimum 2.0‐
2.5 cumulative GPA may be considered for admission on a probationary basis. UW Stout Graduation Requirements All students graduating from UW‐Stout must also meet Racial and Ethnic Studies as well as Global Perspective requirements. Students transferring from one of the UW Colleges having already earned their Associate of Arts & Sciences degree have these two categories automatically met. Students that have not completed their degree at the time they transfer will have to meet the requirements for the Racial & Ethnic Studies and Global Perspective areas identified below. UW‐Stout courses that meet these requirements are listed in the UW‐Stout General Education Requirements (choose GE/RES/GLP course list [PDF]) approved listings on page 7‐9. Students are encouraged to meet these requirements with courses that also apply to either general education or major requirements. Potentially a single course could apply to 2‐3 program requirements. Graduation requirements continued on page 2. Page1of8
Racial & Ethnic Studies (RES): Six credits are required with a minimum of three credits from the Category RES‐A course list. The remaining three credits may be from either the RES‐A or RES‐B course list. At the UW Colleges courses that may meet some of these requirements are listed with the ES (Ethnic Studies) designation. Courses that may apply to this requirement are courses that transfer as equivalencies to courses listed in the UW‐Stout General Education Requirements (choose GE/RES/GLP course list [PDF]) approved listings on page 7. Global Perspective (GLP): Completed by either completing a program of university‐approved work or study abroad, or completing six credits of courses approved as fulfilling the global perspective requirement. Courses that may apply to this requirement are courses that transfer as equivalencies to courses listed in the UW‐Stout General Education Requirements (choose GE/RES/GLP course list [PDF]) approved listings on page 8‐9. Graduation requirements begin on page 3. Page2of8

INDIVIDUALIZED CONCENTRATION » 23 credits required UW‐Stout Course UW‐Colleges Course This concentration is limited to students whose educational goals cannot be met by available concentrations. Students who select this option must develop, with advice and consent of their faculty advisor, a list of 23 credits that have a cohesive and logical relationship to the rehabilitation field. Written rationale explaining their career goals and the list of courses selected must be signed by the students and their faculty advisor and be in the students’ files by their junior year. G. SPECIALIZATION OR MINOR » 23 credits required UW‐Stout Course UW‐Colleges Course Students may choose to complete a minor or specialization in place of a concentration. This choice must be communicated to and approved by the program Director before or by the end of the first semester of the students' junior year. Students will not be able to register for second semester courses unless this choice is indicated. Additional Resources Bulletin, Program Plan and Program Website The Program Plan site also gives information on four‐year plans and links to course descriptions.
