Many four-year schools that have articulation agreements with the Milwaukee Area Technical College offer MATC students an opportunity to transfer many or all of their credits earned from MATC and apply them towards a four-year degree at the accepting school. These agreements are referred to by us as "All-Inclusive". The following is a list of schools offering all inclusive agreements, including a link that gives a brief description.
Always check with the institution in which you plan to attend regarding accepting credits for transfer and additional information on program requirement.

Upper Iowa University
A formal partnership with Upper Iowa University (UIU) was established in the fall of 2003. Given that, any student who graduates from any Milwaukee Area Technical College Associate program may have up to 78 lower division college semester credits transferred towards any of the Bachelor-level degree programs offered at UIU. Up to 30 semester credits may be transferred to Upper Iowa University for students completing an MATC one-year occupational diploma program.
A current articulation agreement is in place by which the transfer of credits for specific courses is determined. An equivalency guide showing that current articulation can be viewed at: http://www.uiu.edu/admissions/transfer/articulation/pdfs/MilwaukeeMATCAE2009-10Articulation.pdf.
