How to Transfer MATC Credits in Civil Engineering

Transferring credits from a technical college, for instance, Madison Area Technical College (MATC), to a university like University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW-Madison) is common practice among institutions of higher education. Some technical college students want to transfer to another school, yet they question how to take their credits with them. Wisconsin has created the Wisconsin University Information System designed specifically to assist students, who wish to transfer credits from the Milwaukee, Madison or other Wisconsin Area Technical Colleges to Wisconsin Universities.
