We can walk you through all the steps needed to apply to the ME-PD Learning Community Program. The Admission process will take approximately 20-40 minutes to complete.

A few important notes:

  • A minimum of 15 registered applicants are needed to secure a class location. In order to be considered an applicant, Step 1 must be completed. Only when Step 1 has been completed and submitted will your application be counted toward securing a class site.

  • Use your social security number whenever you are asked for your student ID number. UW-La Crosse will assign you a student ID number once you are accepted into the graduate program however, until that time your social security number will act as your student ID number.

  • Nonrefundable. The $56 application fee and the $100 tuition deposit will be refunded if the class location does not reach the minimum enrollment of 15 registered students.

  • Financial aid will not issue any checks until you are a registered student.

Step One: Application to Graduate School

  • Complete the Application for Graduate Admission Form online. A $56* application fee will be required, payable by credit or debit card only.

  • *Nonrefundable: The $56 application fee and the $100 tuition deposit will be refunded if the class location does not reach the minimum enrollment of 15 registered students.

  • Please be sure to check “Professional Development - Learning Community” Option [SED] when completing the Graduate Admission Form.

  • The Graduate Admission Form does not allow you to notate your Learning Community site. Once you have submitted your application, the office of Continuing Education/Extension will contact you via e-mail within 10 days to confirm your site request.

  • Request ALL OFFICIAL UNDERGRADUATE transcripts from ALL previous post secondary institutions attended. This includes transfer credits even if they appear on another school transcript. If you attended UW-La Crosse you do not need to request those transcripts. Please contact each institution individually to request your academic records. Most universities allow you to request transcripts online. All official transcripts must be sent directly to:
