Why Wisconsin?

“Wisconsin stole my heart the first time I stepped on campus for my official visit. The hospitality I received from everyone I encountered was very warm and inviting. My family and I had the opportunity to spend time with the coaching staff and team. One of my requirements while visiting schools was to locate a school that felt like home and a handmade environment. It was very clear that Wisconsin was the home for me, and I would fit perfectly. Wisconsin has some of the best athletic programs and I’m thrilled to be a part of the winning tradition. The education Wisconsin provides is remarkable and speaks for itself. I’m excited to take advantage and utilize the resources that are available. I’m confident that Wisconsin will prepare me for life after graduation.”
