Transfer Students
Students in the College of Applied Studies may transfer in some of their courses from
other institutions. However, there is a limit to the number of transfer courses. Your
academic advisor can assist in establishing course equivalencies for transfer credit.
This service is especially recommended for those students who are planning to take
a course elsewhere and transfer it to WSU.
Transferring from a community college?
WSU has worked extensively with Kansas community colleges to develop a list of courses
that will transfer to the WSU College of Applied Studies. Called Transfer Guides, these lists cover transfer information and recommended courses.
Additionally, WSU provides a service called Dual Advising. This provides you with an advisor in the WSU College of Applied Studies to help
guide you as you prepare to transfer to WSU. You can make an appointment to come for
an in-person visit or phone call, with the Dual Advisor by filling out the form.
Graduation from WSU requires a minimum of 120 credit hours, with at least 60 of those
hours taken at a four-year institution and 45 of those hours taken at the upper-division
level. Students seeking a bachelor's degree in sport management should be encouraged
to take no more than 60 hours at a community college, unless seeking an associate's
degree.
