Do students seeking a second undergraduate degree need to fulfill the Gen Ed Requirements?
As noted above, any undergraduate student whose first college matriculation date is after May 20, 1996, must complete these requirements. Students who completed the UW-Madison General Education requirements as part of their first undergraduate degree need not complete them again; students whose first undergraduate degree is from another institution and whose matriculation date is after May 20, 1996, will have their previous course work examined to determine what requirements have been fulfilled by comparable courses taken elsewhere.
