timemanager:
Your background sounds excellent for UW Madison. My son from NJ was high school class of 2010 and he attended Madison for 5.5 years to end of 2015 (he added a major and a certificate kind of late and needed some additional math courses to prep for grad school). He played on their club baseball team. He loved his time there and made great friends who are still friends 10 years later. Living in Madison was an awesome experience. We, the parents, loved it there also and went to a football game each fall. The whole town is wonderful! Everything there seems exciting! Kids party but everyone works hard at schoolwork. Kids are ambitious. I imagine things are a bit ‘off’ during this covid era which is unfortunate but maybe, hopefully, next year will be better. In your essay, show the love. Schools love for students to love their schools! Best wishes! Apply early. Ask me any questions and I can try to answer. P.S. Naviance is very useful and can guide you.
Hi!
