I'm eagerly waiting to hear back from UW Madison and applied regular decision. Does anyone know when notifications usually come out for 2025 applicants? Any tips on dealing with the wait?
The University of Wisconsin-Madison typically releases regular decision notifications on or before March 31. However, this can vary from year to year, so it would be best to keep an eye on your application portal and email for any updates from the university.
As for handling the wait, it can certainly be nerve-wracking, but you've done your part by submitting your application! Now is the chance to focus on other things in your life. Keep up your current academic work–especially if you're waitlisted or admitted, colleges care about your senior grades. You can also use this time to learn more about your other schools, especially if you're having a hard time deciding where you want to enroll. You might choose to get involved in a new extracurricular or start a passion project related to what you hope to study in university. Remember, no matter the outcome, you've put a lot of time and effort into your application, and that's an accomplishment to be proud of!
