This section offers a brief synopsis of requirements for the most frequently asked about majors. Any majors not listed here may differ in course sequence and grade point average

requirements. Please consult other majors’ departmental websites for more detailed information. NOTE: Grade point averages noted below refer only to requirements for currently enrolled UW-Madison students interested in applying to the respective programs. They are not

qualifications for assured admission to the University. BUSINESS – Students transferring for spring semester enrollment at UW-Madison must complete a minimum of 12 credits in residence at UW-Madison, as well as any remaining

Pre-Business courses, during the spring term to be eligible to apply for fall enrollment in the Bachelor of Business Administration program (BBA). These requirements must be completed or in the process of being completed at the time of application to the BBA Program.

Students are advised to review eligibility and admission policies at the following links:

• Application Eligibility requirements: https://wsb.wisc.edu/programs-degrees/undergraduate-bba/admissions/policies

Direct Transfer Admission: (Available for fall semester enrolling transfers only) Students may apply for direct transfer admission into the BBA program at the same time they apply for admission to UW-Madison if they are transferring from a UW-System school

(both two and four year) or one of the Wisconsin Technical Colleges. Students not enrolled at a UW-System School or a Wisconsin Technical college are not eligible for direct transfer admission and must complete 12 credits in residence at UW-Madison before applying to the BBA program in the spring semester. Please note the spring term application deadlines for both UW-Madison and the Wisconsin School of Business. Admission decisions are based on the completion of pre-business courses, cumulative GPA, resume, and essay. Admission is competitive due to enrollment limitations. Students will be notified of their acceptance in early summer.

admission to the College of Engineering. Individuals who have already earned an undergraduate degree are not eligible to apply. The College of Engineering has dual degree programs with select four-year UW System campuses including UW-Eau Claire, UW-La Crosse, UW-Oshkosh, UW-River Falls, and

UW-Whitewater. Eligible dual degree applicants are not subject to the 80 credit limit. To apply: Transfer students must specify which one of the 12 undergraduate engineering programs they are intending on their university application. The Office of Admissions and

Recruitment evaluates all transfer applications to the College of Engineering and selects students for direct admission in their intended engineering program. Admission is selective and competitive.

After application: Soon after notification of admission to the College of Engineering, students will be invited to submit a supplemental application for progression in their intended engineering program.

If the application is approved, they may continue in their program needing to fulfill only the graduation requirements after transfer.

desired degree program in music. Bachelor of Music degree programs (Performance and Education majors) require 2.75 cumulative GPA, 3.00 all-music GPA, and 2.50 theory/history GPA. The liberal arts music major with performance option requires minimum GPAs of 2.00: cumulative, all-music, and theory/history. The theory and history options within the liberal arts music major will be discontinued and thus are not available.

NURSING – Students must apply for admission to the nursing program in addition to their application to University of Wisconsin-Madison. The application cycle runs once a year

with the application opening in early December and closing mid-January for admission to the program the following fall semester. Applicants submit personal information, academic/educational history, work experience and involvement activities, and several personal statements as part of the BS-Nursing program application. Following an eligibility review, all eligible applicants are required to participate in interviews. While we only admit to the nursing program for the fall term, transfer students can apply for spring admission to UW-Madison and come to campus as a pre-nursing student. Admission to the nursing major is competitive and selective. In a typical year, 350-400 students apply for approximately 160 spots in the incoming cohort. The School of Nursing faculty admissions committee employs a holistic review process that takes into account key factors such as academic performance and preparation, health care experience, leadership, extracurricular and service activities, diversity of experience and background, and personal statements when making admission decisions. The School of Nursing requires a minimum cumulative and prerequisite GPA of 2.75 for application, though the average cumulative and prerequisite GPA of the admitted class trends at 3.5.

In order to be considered for admission to the nursing program, the following academic requirements must be met: (1) complete a minimum of 54 degree credits of previous college

work by the end of the spring semester prior to the fall term of application, (2) with a cumulative GPA of at least 2.75 in all college-level coursework at the time of application and at the end of the spring semester prior to fall nursing admission; (3) complete 7 prerequisite courses with a combined GPA of at least 2.75 and least a C (2.0) in each of the individual seven prerequisite courses (Note: four of the seven prerequisites must be complete by the end of the fall semester prior to admission; three of the seven prerequisites can be in-progress during the spring semester prior to admission). All prerequisites must be completed by the end of spring semester to remain eligible for fall admission. To review the prerequisite courses and additional information on the admissions process, please visit https://nursing.wisc.edu/undergraduate/bsn/.

PHARMACY – The Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) program meets the educational requirement for licensure as a registered pharmacist. The B.S. Pharmacology & Toxicology

program, which does NOT meet the educational requirement for licensure as a registered pharmacist, is also offered. Pharm.D. – Seventy-two credits of specified pre-pharmacy course work, and other items, including the Pharmacy College Admission Test (PCAT) scores and a variety of non-

academic criteria, are required for consideration. Admission is competitive because there are more applicants than available spaces in the program. A number of factors are considered. To better serve our Pharm.D. applicants, the University of Wisconsin–Madison participates in PharmCAS (Pharmacy College Application Service). In addition to PharmCAS, there is a school specific supplemental application. The application deadline (for both the PharmCAS and supplemental application) will be in early February for admission in the following fall. For details, see https://pharmacy.wisc.edu/programs/pharmd/admissions/

Bachelr of Science, Pharmacology & Toxicology – Sixty credits of specified prerequisite course work and a major-specific application are required for consideration. Admission is

competitive for this junior-senior curricular sequence. A number of factors are considered; academic achievement is the central criterion. For details, see https://pharmacy.wisc.edu/programs/pharm-tox/admissions/selection-criteria/. All materials must be submitted by early February for admission in the following fall. This application is in addition to the UW-Madison admission application. Transfer students may apply to enter both UW-Madison and the major for the same fall semester (providing all prerequisites will be met with transfer coursework), or, may apply to UW-Madison and start in a different school/college while completing the rest of their prerequisite coursework and apply to the major at a later time.

Admittance to both programs is for fall semester entrance only. Please note that application deadlines and other information are subject to change. For the most current

information and/or application materials, please consult our website at pharmacy.wisc.edu or contact the Student & Academic Affairs Office via email ([email protected]) or phone (608-262-6234).
