Transfer Evaluation; As part of the BRAND nursing major application process, transfer coursework will be evaluated by the School of Nursing to determine the transfer equivalency of required prerequisite courses. Evaluation will also take into consideration the School of Nursing Program Scholastic Requirements. The UW Registrar's Office completes an evaluation of students' transcripts following their admission to the University. Their office determines whether or not courses are found to have UW equivalencies and/or University Studies (USP) attributes. Pending approval/clearance on all transfer discrepancies by both the School of Nursing and the Registrar, students' transfer evaluations are considered unofficial. The Registrar is the official evaluator, and the School of Nursing further determines which courses are then applicable to the nursing curriculum. Evaluations processed by the School of Nursing are subject to change until they have been determined to be official. | University-wide admission (all undergraduate programmes): First-year applicants: cumulative unweighted high school GPA of 3.00-4.00 on a 4.0 scale are assured admission and 2.50-2.99 are admitted with support; High School Success Curriculum of 4 years English, 4 years math, 4 years science, 3 years social sciences and 4 years additional coursework.
