  • A lot of events and campus clubs available, very diverse and inclusive. The research is one of the top in the country but with limited availability.
  • There are more than 3 libraries and they are huge in size, some open for 24 hours. The gym is among top school gyms of the US, with a lot of sports facilities.

  • UW Madison is the main one; there is UW Milwaukee, UW Eau Claire, etc.
  • There are various top-class libraries and lecture halls, gyms, tennis halls, football grounds and stadiums and swimming pools indoors.
  • There are concerts like Coldplay happening next year, events like Diwali from the Indian Student Association, and football (rugby) games between state colleges.
  • There are lots of extracurriculars one can get involved in as a student; get coaching as well.

  • For the first year, I got the on-campus dorms; mine was the Ogg residence hall (pictures attached below). It had good rooms, kitchens, study lounges, and laundry facilities.
  • It was right in front of the bus stop, gym, and dining hall.
  • Other dorms were also nearby and some a little far.
  • For years 2, 3, and 4, I am living in different apartments, which I found online and went through the application process for.
  • The housing market is expensive here and rents are soaring. People are opting for luxury residences.
  • Off-campus accommodations are within walking distance of classes.
  • For future students, I would say find a few people and live in shared rooms to save money and start research early.

  • I could not tell you how many campuses were there, since private buildings were converted into university buildings all the time. The most astonishing thing to me was these buildings were not barricaded or secured in any way, essentially one could walk into a building at any moment.

  • There were 2 gyms that included everything, even basketball, badminton courts and even swimming pools. Medical services are very good, I can attest first hand since I suffered an allergy attack from shrimp. Medical services and police are coordinated with the city police. There are several libraries, student organizations, too many to name here. Clubs exist for everything even cricket which was started by friends and I.

  • In 2019, I did not know about online portals, so university accommodation were my only bet. My advice is to find friends and live with them or look into Facebook groups. Finding a roommate is a practical necessity due to cost and honestly you might even like it.
  • Monthly rent even with roommate was around $1K. This is on the lower end in america and you should expect to pay more.
  • Accommodations are well connected to the university via buses.

While I wasn't very active in campus activities, there was no dearth of relevant campus events. However, most of them seemed to be catered towards undergraduate students.

As compared to other colleges the Indian diaspora is very low which is good and bad. A lot of extra curriculars. Student support is provided in terms of free (limited) groceries provided every Thursday, free food is not hard to find.

Campus infrastructure is very good. Each department/school has clubs and organizations that hold meetings/game nights/social events to get to know each other and have fun. In addition, there’s also a lot of academic related events conducted by each professor.

I live at Eagle Heights which is the university’s graduate student housing location. Infrastructure is very good and very safe neighborhood (exclusively grad students, PhD and post docs). It’s a bit far from campus but you have excellent public transport.
