The University of Wisconsin-Madison offers an amazing blend of academic excellence, vibrant campus life, and a strong sense of community. Some aspects that stood out to me in my four years include academic rigor, campus life, location, student organizations, and research opportunities. UW-Madison is know for is high academic standards and outstanding faculty in every breath of academia. In addition, there is no shortage of things to do outside of the classroom. Clubs that I was apart of included the Kinesiology club, Pre-pt club, and the bowling club.
While my experience was overall positive, there are a few areas I believe improvements could be made: smaller class sizes, affordable on-campus housing, and more diversity.

Madison offers a renowned education that is beginning to be recognized as a "public ivy." It has open doors that have led me to internships, life-long friends, expansion of my business skills, and life lessons. Here I have been shown how to work for my goals and have good balance throughout my life endeavors. I will always appreciate my time studying in the Wisconsin School of Business. I'm hoping my experience with classes and internships at this university will lead me to my dream of opening my own marketing firm.
