Wisconsin Technical College System Math Requirements
The Wisconsin Technical College System has 16 technical college districts throughout Wisconsin, which offer more than 300 programs awarding two-year associate degrees, one and two year technical diplomas, and short-term technical diplomas. In addition, the System is the major provider of customized training and technical assistance to Wisconsin's business and industry community. More than half of all adults in Wisconsin have accessed the technical colleges for education and training in the last decade. The colleges include: Blackhawk Technical College, Chippewa Valley Technical College, Fox Valley Technical College, Gateway Technical College, Madison Area Technical College, Mid-State Technical College, Milwaukee Area Technical College, Moraine Park Technical College, Nicolet Area Technical College, Northcentral Technical College, Northeast Wisconsin Technical College, Southwest Wisconsin Technical College, Waukesha County Technical College, Western Technical College, and Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College.
If you are already planning to attend a four-year college or university after attending one of Wisconsin's technical colleges, it is highly recommended that you talk to an admissions counselor or academic advisor. Requirements vary from institution to institution and an admissions counselor or academic advisor can help you plan your coursework to optimize your transfer of credit into your major. They can also help you choose an appropriate college or university to meet your career goals.
The Transfer Information System (TIS) is a website that has been developed by the University of Wisconsin System in cooperation with the Wisconsin Technical College System. The purpose of TIS is to help students understand their options and provide information about transferring credits and programs between the two systems.
Although bassic information about readiness for core WTCS systemwide mathematics courses begins below, much more detailed information for each college will be available on this site soon.
