<p>UW Milwuakee first year then hopefully transfer to UW madison.</p>

<p>From its WP</p>

<p>Occidental College received more than 5,200 applications for admission to the Class of 2010, setting a new record for the eighth consecutive year and once again confirming Occidental’s status as one of the country’s hottest colleges.</p>

<p>Preliminary results show that at least 5,219 students submitted applications, up 2 percent from last year’s record tally. Overall, applications to Occidental have risen a remarkable 180 percent over the past nine years (as compared to 1,865 applications in 1997).</p>

<p>Occidental now receives more applications than three-quarters of U.S. News & World Report’s top 50 liberal arts colleges, as reported in last year’s rankings. While most peer institutions also have seen increases in applications, Occidental’s numbers stand out.</p>

<p>“I’ve worked in admission at four other colleges and universities over the past 40 years, and I’ve never seen anything like it,” said William Tingley, Occidental’s vice president for admission and financial aid. “I would be hard-pressed to name another college in the country that has experienced a 180 percent increase over the past nine years.”</p>
