Courses may not be retaken at another institution to raise your UWRF GPA and will not be transferred in towards your UWRF academic record. Transfer credit generally applies toward graduation. However, grades for these courses will not be calculated into your UWRF cumulative GPA

Undergraduate students who would like to have their International coursework transferred to the University of Wisconsin-River Falls need to have their record evaluated by an official evaluation service.  Please follow the steps below.

• River Falls requires official copies of academic records from all secondary schools, colleges and universities you have attended. Official records should include all exam results, transcripts/marks, certificates, diplomas or degrees received. These documents should be sent directly to UW-River Falls from the institutions attended. All documents must have a certified English translation.

• To receive credit for courses that you have taken at another college or university outside the United States, you should submit your academic records to a professional evaluation service for review. UW-River Falls recommends one of the following evaluation services:

• Educational Credential Evaluators (ECE)  http://www.ece.org/

• World Education Services (WES)  http://www.wes.org/

• The report from the evaluation service should be sent directly to UW-River Falls.
