"Direct admit removes the need to apply. Instead, students will work with a Career Coach to find the right path and fit here, or at any other institution. Current high school juniors and their families can begin to prepare now for enrollment by continuing to do well in high school courses and exploring all that UW-Green Bay has to offer at www.uwgb.edu.

Where:

UW-Green Bay is one university with four campuses. The direct admit program is applicable at any one of our four campuses (Green Bay, Marinette, Manitowoc, Sheboygan). However, we acknowledge that the majority of students will be attending classes on the Green Bay campus.

How:

Direct college admission into UW-Green Bay eliminates the need for an application. Instead students will move right into the enrollment process. Our admissions team will meet with and support students and their families and answer questions throughout the enrollment process.

Why:

Because this is the right thing to do for students and the communities we serve. The University of Wisconsin-Green Bay community is dedicated to opening doors for the students in Green Bay Area Public Schools as we increase our support for the tremendous work that all of our educators provide in the community.
