Regardless of whether transcripts are necessary, no transferable coursework or other credits earned (e.g. via AP or CLEP exam) will be posted to your 51ÁÔÆæ nondegree student record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-application-process-amp-enrollment-tips\">Application Process &amp; Enrollment Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Apply Online<\/strong><br>To apply now, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/apply.wisconsin.edu\/\">apply.wisconsin.edu<\/a>.
