Issues to Consider. In creating a new or revising an existing articulation agreement, every effort should be made to put student needs front and center. Among the considerations to bear in mind are: • What is the overall goal of establishing the agreement? How will it serve prospective students, UWM, and the sending institution? • What is the likely enrollment impact when compared to the status quo? Will the agreement encourage students to pursue a four-year degree who might not otherwise? • How will students with the listed associate degree be positioned to continue their studies, particularly in comparison to the general transfer population? Where do their learned skills and competencies position them in relation to the baccalaureate curriculum? How can redundant coursework be effectively identified and eliminated? • What are the financial implications? Will there be any waiver or reduction of the application fee, any special tuition pricing, etc.? Even without such, how will the costs of earning a four-year degree be impacted by credit transfer? • If the agreement offers or implies guaranteed admission, what admission criteria are being used and what will the application process be for transferring students? Any special forms, procedures, or tracking of students required?
