If I could describe UW–Madison Badgers in three words, they would be determined, hardworking, and creative.

I knew UW–Madison was the school for me when I spent two weeks in the summer at a pre-college program with the School of Education, through that experience I fell in love with becoming a badger and the opportunities Madison had, also the campus is beautiful!

My biggest advice to high school students considering UW–Madison is to not let your fear stop you if you feel like applying and giving yourself the chance. Apply with confidence in yourself.
