Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Art & Design Department  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Quite Bright Everyone here fits a similar profile: they are all the obnoxious assholes who you hated in high school. And guess what? They haven't grown up at all. This is an environment built for people who want college to be the "best time of their lives." Do you really want the height of your existence to be cramming for exams and drinking 'til you puke on weekends? FACT: 95% of conversations in Madison begin with "I was soooo drunk last weekend..." Everyone here is attempting to live out some juvenile manifestation of the "college experience." The few students that seem interesting are just annoying extroverts in a hipster uniform purchased from Urban Outfitters/American Apparel on State St. Don't be fooled by their cool flannel, at heart they are the same. If you are in introvert with a quiet enthusiasm for the arts, steer clear of this university. There are some nice resources and my professors have been pretty nice. But, it is not worth the awful environment and terrible student body. I guess this review is pretty bitter and unnecessary, but I really needed to vent... I just wasted two years of my life and thousands of dollars attending what was supposed to be a "great school." If you are interested in the arts, seriously consider applying somewhere else, anywhere else. UW-Madison is a creative dead-end Campus Maintenance: A, Individual Value: F Have a Question?

Okay so I was all ready to head out to Wisconsin and try it out. I decided to ignore the negative comments and just focus on experiencing new things. Then, I realized that Wisconsin never sent me my financial aid packet and the date to turn in my deposit was fast approaching. So I called them and guess what? They didn't know when they would get around to my financial aid but they still expected me to spend $100+ by May 1st and if I didn't I would lose my spot. I couldn't believe that they wanted me to make my decision without even knowing if I would be able to afford to go. The lady at the admissions office was rude and didn't seem to care about my problems at all! For those who haven't applied yet and are out of state, don't bother, even if you want to go they won't make it possible for you to. Friendliness: D, Education Quality: F Have a Question?
