Admissions 101

Do you have an aspiring #FutureBadger in your family? Join us live online to meet leaders from the Office of Admissions and Recruitment. Learn about UW–Madison’s admissions process and timelines, and get information on the college application process, including:

  • What happens once an application is submitted, and what does holistic review mean?
  • What does it mean that UW–Madison is “test optional” until 2025?
  • What does it mean that UW–Madison is competitive and selective?
  • … and much more!

This free program focuses on the application process for those who have not yet applied to the university. It is recommended for high school juniors, seniors, and their families. It is free to attend, but registration is required to access this livestream.
