Western's University Transfer programs are equivalent to the first- and second-year general education courses offered at traditional universities. Our Associate of Science program prepares you for Bachelor of Science programs in the University of Wisconsin System as well as many other four-year transfer partners.

General education courses include English, math, science, history, social sciences, the humanities, and health and wellness courses. You could save 40 percent by taking these AS degree courses at Western before transferring to a four-year program of study in the natural and physical sciences or social sciences!

If you have a particular college or university in mind, reach out to a Western College Advisor before selecting courses in order to develop a transfer plan or select one of the direct transfer plans developed with our four-year partners.

How is this different from the Associate of Arts program?

This program differs from the Associate of Arts program in the following ways:

  • 10 additional credits in the Mathematics and Natural Science categories
  • 12 fewer credits in the Humanities and Social Science categories
  • History requirement
  • Differing elective credits
