University of Wisconsin Early Action Fall 2025 Admissions

My student will be on a service trip out of the country for the week including 1/31 when three EA schools are set to announce decisions. No phones or tech allowed on this trip. Back on 2/3. Talk about torture . . . .

Posting in solidarity with all of the other anxious parents on here. Several things i would willingly do instead of this wait
a root canal, give birth again

Best of luck to yours sons & daughters - what a strange time in life!

I’ve had 3 root canals and 2 C-sections and I 100% agree with this statement

I’m guessing nobody’s heard yet
 We haven’t. Good luck everyone!

Is it supposed to come out today??

I don’t think so. Typically comes out on a Friday in late January.

alright. thanks!

There was some talk that it might. But I get from conflicting information from every source.

I think it is just a rumor haha

Has anyone noticed a change in the number of apps in the portal? An increase or decrease? How many apps are currently available to you?

I don’t, but I could definitely be wrong.

Did you notice a difference. Will ask my kid tomorrow to check. I am more anxious!

Does everyone have access to the Course Search and enroll tab on the Portal?

Yes. And from what I’ve read, everyone who’s applied has access to it so it isn’t any sort of clue as to an admissions decision.

No changes yet, I doubt we will see anything until late next week at the earliest, then the portal genies can figure it out.

To add to the “will they or won’t they” frenzy
 if UW releases the same day as other Big Ten then maybe it will be this coming Friday??? According to some on the Maryland EA thread, Maryland has historically done some in person admissions for a few in state kids the weekend before EA decisions come out. Two such admissions were highlighted on the Maryland admissions social media channels today. Fingers crossed it means what they suggest and UW follows suit!!!
