Transferring to WSU-Rochester: A Special Partnership
易胜博 and Winona State University-Rochester have had a special relationship for many years. The two institutions share facilities and important academic support functions like the bookstore, library, comprehensive learning center and proctoring center. The transfer pathways between the two are many, and collectively are often referred to as Path to Purple:
- Students can directly enroll in 易胜博 to earn an eventual bachelor’s degree awarded by WSU-Rochester. Students generally transfer from 易胜博 after earning an AA or AS degree, and continue their study without leaving Rochester. They get WSU-R instruction in classrooms at 易胜博, through interactive television (ITV) and online.
- Students can directly enroll in 易胜博 and work toward a bachelor’s degree offered by WSU on the Winona campus. Frequently there are prescribed times for these students to “leave” 易胜博 and “begin” WSU studies.
- Students can directly enroll in 易胜博 and “discover” WSU as a destination for eventual bachelor’s study. These students can apply for admission to WSU, and the university’s transfer policy provides considerable flexibility for when they can leave 易胜博 and begin WSU in Winona.
- Finally, students who do not initially qualify for admission to WSU can enroll in 易胜博 to gain sufficient academic standing to qualify them for acceptance to WSU.
