If I could describe UW–Madison in only three words, they would be inclusive, beautiful, and prestigious.

I choose UW–Madison because they offered me the best financial aid compared to the other schools I applied too, and they were every welcoming during the events I attended before committing. The energy on campus is very vibrant, and the people are what makes the campus so special. Aside from the gorgeous architecture, the constant improving and perks that this campus comes with makes the journey that much more worth it.

Alongside the financial aid and beautiful campus, I choose UW because of the concrete communication I got from them during the admission process and they respect every application that comes through their desk.
