Second Baccalaureate Degree
A second baccalaureate degree may not be attempted until the first has been awarded. A student may complete two majors simultaneously. Matriculation in a second degree will be approved only if:
- The student files with the Registrar’s Office a statement of approval by the dean of the college/school and the chair of the department in which she or he wishes to complete the second degree;
- The student’s major for the second degree is taken in a subject matter field other than the one in which she or he was awarded the first degree; and furthermore,
- The credit-hour requirements for the major leading to the second baccalaureate degree are those specified in the current catalog and will have been earned after the awarding of the first baccalaureate degree.
In addition, the following regulations apply:
- A minimum of 32 credit hours toward the second baccalaureate degree must be completed in residence at the University of Guam.
- Students holding a baccalaureate degree from other U.S. accredited four-year colleges and universities or foreign equivalent may attempt a second baccalaureate degree at the University of Guam provided they meet the relevant requirements listed above.
- In some cases, the General Education requirements may be waived when the student is pursuing a second baccalaureate degree.

Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE)
The Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE) is a regional organization created by the Western Regional Education Compact and adopted in the 1950s by Western states. WICHE was created to facilitate resource sharing among the higher education systems of the West. Helping students gain affordable access to higher education is one of its objectives.
The Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) is coordinated by WICHE. Students enrolled through WUE pay up to 150% of the enrolling institution’s resident undergraduate tuition. To qualify, applicants must demonstrate residency in a WICHE member state and must be admitted to a WUE-eligible major at UOG.
WICHE's member states include 15 Western states and member U.S. Pacific Territories and Freely Associated States (currently, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands and Guam). WICHE’s 15 member states are: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming.
Eligibility
Students must demonstrate one (1) year of residency in a member WICHE state. Proof of residency can be demonstrated by providing one of the following:
