With close to 200 different degree offerings, active research programs, and a vibrant local and student life, the University of Wisconsin in Milwaukee (UWM) has something for everyone, both academically and otherwise. At UWM, you can get an undergraduate degree in Architectural Studies, Film, Comparative Literature, Electrical Engineering, Marketing, Music Education, Religious Studies, or Nursing. You can also get a Pre-Professional degree for Chiropractic, Dentistry, Law, or Medicine, engage in research projects, or pursue a master’s degree in Occupational Therapy or Theatre Performance. Not only that, but you can get a bachelor’s or graduate degree in about 150 other areas of study. Student life offerings are just as plentiful and eclectic. You can join a sailing club, get involved with the student radio station, do volunteer work, or join more than one hundred other cultural, academic, professional, performing arts, and recreational student groups and activities. Milwaukee, too, is home to many activities, including a local ballet, summer music festivals, lots of shopping and nightlife, and, for those who wish to relax, many parks and outdoor recreation areas. Since UWM has so many programs, its admissions policies also vary based on one’s level and area of study. A state school, UWM’s tuition is significantly lower for Wisconsin residents, and eligible students may benefit from a variety of financial aid sources, including federal, private, and institutional scholarships and programs.
