Application to the Wisconsin School of Business Undergraduate Program
All applicants, including those applying for junior and sophomore admission, will be required to complete the following components of our application:
- Essay responses (250 words maximum per question) related to each of the following topics:
- Motivation to pursue a business major
- Experience with leadership and/or teamwork
- Ethics in business or personal experiences
- Other factors that should be taken into consideration - for example, major extenuating personal circumstances. This question is optional and will not negatively affect admissibility if no response is entered.
- Student Involvement Record
- Any extracurricular activities relevant to business admission (for example, student organizations, work experience, volunteer work, etc.)
- Provide brief descriptions (a few sentences or bullet points) and reference information for each activity
- The Admissions Committee focuses primarily on student involvement at UW-Madison or another postsecondary institution. Involvement in high school activities is welcomed but should not comprise the majority of the Student Involvement Record.
The application period is now closed.
