UW Madison Early Action for Fall 2022 Admission

Does the portal now allow everyone to self report their test scores? I don’t remember this being an option before.

That option was always there on our portal, but perhaps it isn’t the same for everyone?

anyone heard anything about a release day & time?
maybe the OSU fiasco has them worried about announcing-have friends caught up in that and is justifiably angry

Oh no! What happened?

Random question while we wait, when you go to the financial aid section, does it list the estimated cost of attendance? Currently, it lists $0.00, but shows the estimated family contribution from the FAFSA. My recollection for my older daughter (just before her acceptance two years ago) it listed these estimated costs (that varied depending on the major applied for). I didn’t know (1) if others have the same display; (2) if I am mis-remembering; (3) if it was a hint (unlikely) that I didn’t pick up on; or (4) if they changed the way the post these things?

EA decisions were supposed to be 12/10 & 1/21. A large batch of kids didn’t get decisions on either date with no communication from OSU. Yesterday, all these kids got deferred to RD. Nobody knows exactly what happened. But a lot of very high stat kids got deferred.

Oh wow. Crazy!

A couple of more data points:
UMass: also missed the decision date on EA and put a bunch of them into Waitlist yesterday
Rutgers: Still a lot of EA waiting for decision. They said they need time till 2/15.

I don’t think (at least I hope) that Wisco would have posted that Instagram post the other day about making sure you know which email you used to apply if they were planning on postponing EA decisions……unless we all just read way into that post….:woman_shrugging:

Does UW Madison usually post notification before releasing the results?

It tells you later after they release financial aid stuff, until then it’s just gonna say $0 for most schools

anyone seeing any changes in their UW Madison
portal

nope

What should we be looking for?

The portal seem to be different on mobile…looks the same on pc/laptop :slight_smile:
