Could IS applicants that got accepted post their stats? If you wouldn't mind.
Yeah I agree that it's overkill to have more than 150, but hey even though it's a very small chance of getting in, it's still better than zero chance of getting in. :/ Have you gotten in anywhere else?

That's a very good point and I hope the waiting list moves. I also hope I'm on it. :/I presume it's not overkill, because I can't think of any reason for the school to do that to themselves unnecessarily. Think of it from their end - they have to update all those people, process all that stuff, etc. They aren't going to do it if they don't think it's necessary.
It sucks, but really sit down and calculate out the exact tuition cost for each. UW does allow OOS to gain IS rather easily, right? So, calculate 1 year of OOS and 3 of IS (don't forget that 4th year summer term). I'd also calculate OOS for all 4 years, just in case. Then look at your IS as well.
@fractiousfeline, do you know about students who move to Wisconsin with their spouses who work there?OOS students can't gain IS residency at UW. If you're OOS it's for all 4 years.

As far as I know they can't either. There are several married OOS students with working spouses in my year and none of them have mentioned being able to switch to IS (and believe me, they would have by now if it were possible since tuition has been such a hot topic here lately).
Hi Calmae! I've posted my stats up in the Successful Applicants thread. I hope it helps! Don't get down on yourself...there are so many factors that go into the decisions that it's hard to say who or what they are looking for. Best of luck!Could IS applicants that got accepted post their stats? If you wouldn't mind.
I currently live right behind the vet school (I work in a lab on campus) on University Ave. and really like the location as well as the company from which I rent. They are called Ripple and they have pet-friendly policies so check them out. http://www.ripplerents.com/Any ideas on where students should live if they have cats? Any places to avoid? All ideas are welcome... also has anyone made a Facebook group yet?
Thanks! We will definitely check them out!I currently live right behind the vet school (I work in a lab on campus) on University Ave. and really like the location as well as the company from which I rent.

If there are certain locations you're curious about let me know and I can give you more info. It really helps to live closer to campus if you can or at least on a bus line that runs frequently to/from campus.
Thanks. It's hard not to be sad when you've spent so many years working towards that goal. After looking at your stats I assume my problem was my GRE score or lack of research. I have a 3.96 GPA and a decent amount of experience. It just kind of came as a shock to me. I think I'm accepting it now. congrats to you though! I hope you enjoy it!Hi Calmae!

That's basically the same thing as an acceptance - you just have to wait a bit longer. Congrats!!My small, white envelope came today. Alternate list #17. The letter says they usually accept 25-85 from the alternate list. So maybe there's hope?
Thanks, I'm just paranoid that this year they will only get to #16.That's basically the same thing as an acceptance - you just have to wait a bit longer. Congrats!!
With the tuition hike, I would expect greater fluctuations instead of less tbh. But who knows...Thanks, I'm just paranoid that this year they will only get to #16.
I totally understand. I really hope you apply again and not let this deter you from pursuing your passion though. And thank you!Thanks.

I think I may just accept my offer at Minnesota. I'd hate to pass it up and then get turned away again next year by Wisconsin! But thank you for the kind words!I totally understand. I really hope you apply again and not let this deter you from pursuing your passion though. And thank you!
Congrats!OOS #3!!!! I'm so glad they rank their wait list. Hopefully this is good news!
That's Fantastic!!! Congratulations! I'm really surprised you didn't get in at WI...you seem to be a strong applicant! I wish you the best of luck at MN if that's where you decide to goI think I may just accept my offer at Minnesota. I'd hate to pass it up and then get turned away again next year by Wisconsin!

Thanks! I'm not really sure what happened either but it's all going to be okay. that's what I keep telling myself anyway.That's Fantastic!!! Congratulations!

Lol you're "one of those" huh?Alright, time to bust out the tent, ice cooler and sleeping bag...gonna camp the mailbox. All my camping in FPS games may finally pay off.
I love you and I'm disappointed in every person in this thread who did not like this post

Some more general advice on living in Madison: try to avoid housing right by Camp Randall (unless you LOVE football games and crowds) and on/right next to State Street. When I first moved here, I was subletting an apartment for a month above the shops on State Street and I rarely had a full night of sleep (there are a lot of frats, sororities, and undergrad housing in that area).Thanks! We will definitely check them out!
