Has anyone else applied to Wisconsin schools this cycle? I was accepted to UWLC and was hoping to get more info on it from current or past students! I also applied to Milwaukee and Madison!

Hi! I also applied to Minnesota and got accepted there too! I had about a 3.6 gpa and my GRE was 161 verbal, 160 quant and 4.5 writing. I think my stats are pretty average. I will say what I think got me into most programs was that I have 2 gaps years working in clinical research so I have 5+ publications.
