How Do Test Scores Work for UW-Green Bay Applications?

Transfer Students: What Materials Do I Send?
In addition to your online application, UW-Green Bay requires official transcripts from any college(s) you have attended since graduating high school. In order to be considered official, the transcripts must be sent directly from the college(s) to UW-Green Bay. Official transcripts can be ordered online from the previous college’s website and sent via email to uwgb@uwgb.edu.
Please note: transcripts that are sent to you and you forward to UW-Green Bay are not considered official for admission purposes.

Meet Logan – and his on-campus jobs!
Working on campus at UWGB is an incredible experience. You meet a lot of new people, make new friends, build up some valuable skills, and make a bit of extra money while doing it. When I started college, I hadn’t planned on working in as many different positions as I have, but now I’m glad that I did. Working in a variety of different jobs, with a variety of different people teaches you a lot about your ideal work environment, the kinds of work that you like or don’t like, and the conditions you need to do your best work possible.
Meet Sydney – and her internships!
Having internships can help prepare you for your future, help you decide what you like, and make your overall college experience more fun! I found that I love working in sports, specifically the marketing entertainment side of sports. For the last two years, I have been fortunate to have worked for the Green Bay Packers. If you didn’t know, Lambeau Field is just 20 minutes from campus. I was already a sports fan, but being able to be on the field for my favorite team was unreal. I will never forget the first time I was on the field for the national anthem and the flyover – it was breathtaking.
A Day in Jordan’s Life
My day starts bright and early in the morning at 7 am. Waking up around the same time helps me to feel better in the morning and fall asleep better at night. I live on-campus in a traditional apartment, so I don’t have far to go to get to anywhere on campus. I enjoy morning workouts as a good way to wake up and relieve stress, and the Kress is a great place to go for a much-needed stress reliever. I also try to do some of my homework and studying before heading to class, since I work after class on some days.
