Hi everyone! Does anyone know when the transfer application deadline is for the University of Wisconsin Madison? I don't want to miss it, but their website seems to be a bit confusing. Appreciate any help!
Hello! The University of Wisconsin Madison has a few different transfer application deadlines, depending on which term you plan to start. Here are the deadlines for each term:
- Fall term: The priority deadline is February 1st. The regular deadline is March 1st.
- Spring term: The only available deadline is October 1st.
With regards to the fall term priority deadline, even though you officially have until March 1st to submit your application, you should treat February 1st as a hard deadline. Applications received after this date may still be considered on a space-available basis, but you have no control over that, and you don't want your hard work to go to waste.
Additionally, if you apply by the priority deadline, you'll also hear back from Wisconsin earlier (by March 31st compared to by April 30th), which can allow you to start planning for your transfer to Wisconsin, or evaluating your other options, earlier.
Good luck with your transfer application! Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions.
