Question about scholarship:

We are OOS. Does Winsconsin (Colleg of Agriculture and Life Sciences) match scholarship from other public schools like UWashington or UMD? Or is the scholarship negotiable at all?

1234

Never heard of negotiation or matching other schools. UW is currently upping its numbers of scholarships- historically very few, especially for freshmen/OOS. Have not chosen to vie for students with merit money in the past.

1235

does you admission letter say CS, my daughters portal says general course

1236

When does waitlist come out?

1237

There’s a thread for waitlist already, but a few decisions have been released already and more will be released as may 1st passed because people’s portals automatically decline admission. Decisions are made based on space for majors
