RCTC to UWL

Welcome Rochester Community & Technical College students! 

We are glad you're interested in learning more about UW-La Crosse.

Admission Guidelines

  • Students with at least a 2.25 cumulative grade point average in transferable credits will be stronger candidates for admission.
  • Students with a cumulative grade point average between a 2.00 and 2.24 in transferable credits will be considered for admission if space is available.
  • Students who were not admissible as new freshmen must have earned at least 18 transferable semester credits to be considered for transfer admission.

While academic preparation is the primary criterion used in the admissions review process, we consider other nonacademic secondary factors that may contribute to the strength of an application, including demonstrated leadership, extracurricular involvement, special talent, personal statement, recommendations, or adding a diverse dimension to our campus community.

We have also developed a general education equivalency guide to assist students with planning their transfer from Madison College to UW-La Crosse.
