General Courses and Transfer

Students can begin their general studies with one or two years at UW-Green Bay and transfer to another nursing program. Students are advised to consult with their transfer school of choice regarding requirements, transfer information, and advising assistance before beginning course work at UW-Green Bay. Other nursing programs include UW System nursing programs at Oshkosh, Milwaukee, Madison, and Eau Claire, or various private institutions in Wisconsin. Locally, for example, nursing students of Bellin College in Green Bay can complete their general education requirements at UW-Green Bay through a dual-enrollment arrangement.
