Madison College’s University Transfer programs allow students to kick-start their studies at Madison College and continue toward a bachelor’s degree at another college or university.
In 2025, the college launched new transfer agreements with bachelor’s degree-granting institutions to increase access, reduce barriers and open doors to universities across Wisconsin and the nation.
Connecting students to top universities
Two new national partnerships, with the Transfer Scholar Network and the UNCF, expand opportunities for Madison College students.
“These collaborations will be incredibly impactful for our students,” said Madison College Provost Dr. Beth Giles. “Creating opportunities for all our students to have equitable access to higher education and its benefits is a priority here at Madison College. We are thankful for these partnerships.”
The Transfer Scholar Network (TSN), led by the Aspen Institute College Excellence Program and supported by the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation, strengthens transfer access to select bachelor’s degree-granting colleges and universities with high graduation rates.
With webinars, resources, financial aid, and dedicated support, TSN empowers Madison College students to navigate the transfer admissions and financial aid processes effectively.
Since launching in 2021, TSN has successfully engaged students from two-year colleges, with most achieving a GPA of 3.5 or higher and coming from diverse backgrounds, including lower-income communities.
“This program is an amazing opportunity for Madison College students. We know the education that we provide our students is an excellent foundation for the completion of a bachelor’s degree and our participation as a partner confirms the rigor provided at Madison College,” said Madison College Transfer Services Director Yohlunda Mosley Hill.
A new partnership with the UNCF, launched in fall 2025, provides Madison College students access to valuable scholarships, financial aid, career advising and exclusive access to 37 historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs).
The goal is to ease the complexity of navigating the transfer process, provide resources for financial aid planning and literacy, and support degree completion and career success after graduation.
