Advising and Admissions
Would you like to talk to us about transferring to the Zilber College? Schedule and advising appointment by calling 414-229-2758 or emailing zcph-info@uwm.edu.
Our advisors are assigned by program, giving you expert information about the student experience in your chosen major.
Please bring or send a copy of your unofficial transcript (from all institutions) to your first appointment.
- While many students use the Transfer Equivalency Database or Transferology for a peek at how courses may transfer, our advisors bring you the latest information as programs and requirements change over time.
- It’s never too early to contact us; we often work with students several semesters before actually attending UWM.
- Contact us for an unofficial evaluation of your completed or in-progress credits from other accredited U.S. colleges and universities.
- Since this is an unofficial evaluation, not an application, credit counts may change once you officially apply to UW-Milwaukee. We are unable to unofficially evaluate transcripts from foreign institutions or unaccredited institutions.
In general, transfer students are required to have a minimum 2.0 cumulative GPA to be considered for admission. Exceptions are considered for students who earned below a 2.0 CUM when those grades are more than seven years old.
