UW-Milwaukee: New Guest

Enrollment Information

New/Summer Guest Students
Summer Session enrollment for new/guest students is a two-step process.

Applying to UWM
If you're new to UWM, you need to be admitted before you can enroll for summer classes at UWM.

If you are enrolled at another college or university during the academic year, and want to take a class or two at UWM during the summer, apply as a Summer Guest Student. Note: If you previously attended as a Guest Student you do need to submit a new application.

Will courses transfer?
If you are currently attending another college or university, your advisor from your home institution should recommend which courses will transfer to your home institution and apply toward your degree.

UW/WTCS students: Check the Transfer Information System to see how your courses would transfer from UWM to your home campus.
