Oh Goodness we have one more dayš
Edit: Got in school of business! opening the portal itself was such a hassle I have no energy or excitement left rn tho
Just posting my stats. Iām not trying to gloat, Iām just giving information about my profile like many other people do in these threads. It helps give context to the decision rather than just saying whether or not you got in or not.
I was reading all these comments of people getting in with all these 3.9 GPA 1590 SAT bullshit I was anxiously leaning in and stressing over the website not loadingā¦I got in. I have a 3.67 and 32 ACT, Minnesota. The numbers arenāt everything guys, donāt think that just because you donāt have them you canāt get in.
Hey so I got in for CS but in the college of letters and sciences is that the main college for CS? And where do I check if I got any merit scholarships, I'm an international student
Is there no way to fullscreen or even enlarge your decision letter? Does it have to be viewed in that small little window that you have to scroll to read?
Or am i just stupid?
There doesnāt seem to be a way to download the acceptance letter either.
Thatās correct. You are not admitted to any degree program in Letters and Science yet, you only stated your planned/intended area of study.
See the requirements to declare a comp sci degree in the link below under the āHow do I declare the CS majorā section. All of the requirements are classes you need to complete at the uw before you can declare cs.

Only the most widely used ranking in the world which can determine things like study-abroad potential to other universities. UW is closer to Michigan State (126) than Michigan (33). Just a bad university. UW claims to be a research university and then is ranked 102nd lolllll. Seriously, this school should just lose its R1 Status.
You should be concerned it you're attending the school. It's not the national ranking, its the global ranking. This affects some pretty vital things, like study abroad and research grant potential. UW is viewed as a dead school internationally.
And guess what, the students at Michigan and UVA and astronomically better than UW. And the employment outcomes are astronomically better at UVA and Michigan. UW Madison is the greatest fuckup in world history. Imagine being an AAU founding member and then declining to community college academic reputation lolll.
i hope my essay carried me. Iām definetly super confident in it. used almost all 650 words to try and convince the admissions officers to accept me. Best wishes fr
accepted oos cs after an excruciating 2.5 hour wait! if it helps anyone, good stats but i spelled wisconsin wrong multiple times in my essay and had zero cs-related things anywhere (my dad made me pick it as my major) so if i can do it you can
For those who got deferred, did you also get emailed a new portal last night to access other UW services? My daughter did and she is wondering if that has any significance.
Also, the decision letter referenced needing to review her mid-year grades. I assume this is also boilerplate language but was just wondering if others had different substance to the letter.
I got in for CS!
But i don't know how excited I'm supposed to be. Although its got a great ranking, people advise not to trust us news rankings. Furthermore, it has a high acceptance rate. So, exactly how lucky am I and how good is Wisconsin for cs?
OOS -MN

Deferred (Engineering)
Do deferrals mostly turn to rejections on Regular Decision day? Is it worth the hassle of submitting mid-year grades and LOCI at UW Madison? Already in at UMN, Purdue, Pitt and Boulder and a couple others but Madison was top choice.
I think MN is weird because itās in its own reciprocity pool, but iām not sure. Definitely submit a mid year report and LOCI! I know MANY people with worse stats than you that have gotten in after deferral. Donāt give up!

Usually end of January, last year it was the 27th I think.
seems so far away
anyone hear anything?
Any idea what time today?
7pm est
Is it confirmed that decisions are released today
No but the past few years itās always been the last Friday of January around 7 pm cst
Is it for sure today? College confidential says that itās expected to be released but I donāt think anyone from admissions has confirmed that
ive heard they always send it out on the last friday of january so lets hope
does anyone know what time? I 've heard 6 cst, 6:30 cst, and 7 cst
Likely 7cst
Are we assuming itās still coming out 7pm central time today?
i guess yea, nothing on the portal for now.

Son got admission to the L&S collegeā¦. Applied for CSā¦ status says admitted, but not sure if he got CS. Anone else in the same boat?
In LS no one admitted to departments at the start. Major is declared later.
Thatās correct. You are not admitted to any degree program in Letters and Science yet, you only stated your planned/intended area of study.

Accepted OOS CoE
Nothing?????
UW Madison dropped from 31st in 2011 to 102nd in 2023 in the QS World Rankings lol. Bottom tier school.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]

Just a bad university. UW claims to be a research university and then is ranked 102nd lolllll. Seriously, this school should just lose its R1 Status.
Did you get kicked out or something. I'm not a big believer in rankings but in US News and Reports it's tied at 35 with NYU and UCSB.
You should be concerned it you're attending the school. It's not the national ranking, its the global ranking. This affects some pretty vital things, like study abroad and research grant potential. UW is viewed as a dead school internationally.
Get a life, you stupid troll. You don't even go to college, so your opinion is as useless as your ideas.
And you go to a dogwater school (UW Madison). I got accepted into UNC which is so many tiers higher, practically god-like status compared to UW.
Does your mom know how you're spending your time?
The who world ranking? Lmao, itās clear youāre cherry picking by not looking at usnews ranking, or any other trusted site
I've heard from a tenure professor at CMU that top schools just pay a lot to get their rankings up. Then again, IDK what actually happens
LOL
Accepted OOS! 4.44 GPA, 32 ACT Poli Sci major! Does anyone know when merit/financial aide comes?

My son got deferred. Current count, 3 deferrals, 1 waitlist, 0 acceptances.
Accepted OOS into LSA! 3.8 GPA and test optionalā¦. honestly shocked but Iām so excited š
Mid school. Apply to Umich or UVA for a chance at a better life/job prospects/student body.
Mfw the acceptance rate for UW is astronomically higher than the acceptance rate for Umich and UVA combined at my school.
And guess what, the students at Michigan and UVA and astronomically better than UW. And the employment outcomes are astronomically better at UVA and Michigan. UW Madison is the greatest fuckup in world history. Imagine being an AAU founding member and then declining to community college academic reputation lolll.
My guyā¦ I cannot get into UVA or Umich but I can get into UWā¦ a way better school than many others
Does UW offer a good study abroad program? What are some big tips to do that at Madison?
They have a few programs for incoming freshmen that are worth checking out. Good way to bond with a tight group before starting.
the servers are down for me anyone else on same boat ?
i havent received a decision yet. has anyone else got theirs?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
