Transfer to Parkside
There is no such thing as “one size fits all” when transferring to a new school. Depending on where you’ve been in life and your educational goals, what you need will be unique to you.
AFFORDABLE EDUCATION
YOUR CREDITS TRANSFER
At Parkside, we value giving students amazing opportunities at a reasonable cost. We offer tuition rates that are among the lowest in the UW System, and each year we award more than $250,000 in scholarships to our students.
Understanding how your credits will transfer to Parkside is important. We maintain articulation agreements with many regional two-year colleges to create a smooth transition to your bachelor’s degree.
Learn more about scholarship opportunities* and outof-state scholar programs on our Paying for College webpage: uwp.edu/financialaid * To be eligible for most scholarships, you must be admitted by February 1.
