Hey guys, I'm in the midst of my application timeline planning and was wondering, when's the latest I can apply to the University of Wisconsin-Madison? Are there different deadlines for early and regular decisions?
The University of Wisconsin-Madison operates on a bit of a unique timeline, so I'm glad you're planning ahead. Their application period actually begins in August and they use a rolling admissions policy, but they do have some preferred deadline dates.
For their Early Action, the preferred filing date is November 1. If you apply by this date, you will receive an admissions decision by the end of January.
For Regular Decision, the deadline is January 15. Decisions will come out by the end of March.
So remember, when you're planning, aim to get your application in by November 1 for Early Action and January 15 for Regular Decision. But also know they continue to review applications sent after these dates until they've filled their incoming class.
