FAQs

Here are answers to common questions about the bootcamps. 

If you need assistance with financial aid, please contact UW-Green Bay Student Services Center at (920) 465-2111 or SSC@uwgb.edu for guidance. It is important to note that, if you are attending UW-Green Bay as a special student while receiving financial aid from your home institution, you should contact your home institution first to discuss getting a consortium agreement. Under a consortium agreement, students may take courses at a school other than the home institution and have those courses count toward the degree or certificate at the home school. Learn more at: What is a consortium agreement? | Federal Student Aid

The full payment is due one month before the course starts. If you do not make the payment by this deadline, you will not be enrolled in the course.

We offer on-campus housing at the UW-Green Bay campus and provide information on local hotel options near both the Green Bay and Manitowoc campuses. Once registered, students will receive additional housing details.
