Admissions 101 Virtual: West

Do you have an aspiring Badger in your family? Hear from leaders from the Office of Admissions and Recruitment to learn about UW–Madison’s admissions process and timelines! Join this virtual program with your student to get information on the college application process tailored to aspiring Badgers in the western U.S., including:

  • What happens once an application is submitted and what does holistic review mean?
  • What does it mean when UW–Madison is described as competitive and selective?
  • What needs to be submitted with an application?

This free virtual program focuses on the application process for those who have not yet applied to the university. It is recommended for high school sophomores, juniors, and their families.
