College Options in Wisconsin

I'm considering colleges in Wisconsin and am curious about people's experiences. Are there some colleges there that you would recommend? Specifically, I'm interested in something artsy or creative writing. Thanks!

Absolutely, there are some fantastic schools in Wisconsin that cater to students interested in pursuing creative and art-related disciplines. Here are a few worth considering:

1. University of Wisconsin - Madison (UW Madison): It offers a comprehensive and intensive Bachelor of Fine Arts program, which could be suitable for those interested in exploring different artistic media. Also, their English Department has a robust Creative Writing Program with vibrant undergraduate and graduate majors and certificates. Students have opportunities to interact with some of the best creative writing faculty in the country.

2. Beloit College: Known for its commitment to progressive liberal arts education, Beloit offers a variety of creative arts programs, including a Creative Writing major. Beloit is noted for its small class sizes, engaged professors, and a welcoming, artistic campus culture.

3. Lawrence University: A small liberal arts school with a strong focus on individualized learning. It offers a Bachelor of Arts in English with an emphasis on Creative Writing. Lawrence also offers a Bachelor of Music degree which could be an appealing option if you're interested in exploring the arts more broadly.

4. Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design (MIAD): If you're leaning more toward the arts, MIAD is heavily focused on art and design disciplines. It doesn't specifically offer creative writing but it could still be an artistic environment that fuels your writing.

I'd recommend you to research more about these institutions, and if possible, visit the campuses to see which one resonates with you the most. Remember, finding the right college is not just about the programs offered, but also about the environment and how comfortable you feel there.
