A strong preparation in mathematics and physics is necessary prior to transfer to minimize the time required to complete the degree requirements. The requirements for direct entry into the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering upon transfer are the same as listed above for certification. Applications from transfer students will be handled by the Admissions Office. The costs of higher education at WSU have increased sharply in recent years. Financial aid is available in the form of scholarships from the department and the University.
Loans are also available through the university financial aid office.
