matriculate at Wright State will be considered as having met the IW and
MC requirements in the Wright State Core.
Transfer students who have completed the equivalent of 50% or more
(more than 19 semester hours) of the Wright State Core when they
matriculate at Wright State must complete one IW and one MC course in
the Wright State Core. The IW requirement may also be satisfied by
preparing an acceptable portfolio that includes writing on demand or by
completing an approved advanced writing course.
Transfer students who have completed the equivalent of less than 50%
(less than 19 semester hours) of the Wright State Core when they
matriculate at Wright State must complete two IW courses and two MC
courses in the Wright State Core.
NOTE: All transfer students must complete two IW courses in the major.
Any additional IW course completed in the major beyond the two used to
meet the major requirement can be used to complete the IW requirement
in the Core.
