First-Year Application

It’s time to tell us your story. Through our holistic approach to admitting students, we consider many academic factors but we also seek to learn more about you as an individual. Make sure to use the essay section as an opportunity to share your story with us. What drives you? How do you help others? Why do you feel you would thrive here at UW-Eau Claire?

Deadlines

We begin accepting applications on August 1 for the fall semester of the following year. For fall admission, submit your application and all required documents by February 1 for priority consideration.

How to apply

Please submit the following:

1. One of the following applications:
   • UW System application (recommended option if you want to apply to multiple UW System schools)
   • Common App
2. $25 application fee
   Note: You will be able to indicate your need for a fee waiver on your application. If you have already submitted your application, please email admissions@zlmmc8.com to request a fee waiver and explain the reason for your need (e.g. eligible for free and reduced lunch, etc.).
3. High school transcript
   Note: An unofficial initial high school transcript may be uploaded during the application process. An official final high school transcript will be required prior to enrollment.
4. ACT or SAT scores (writing portion not required) - Submission of ACT/SAT scores is optional through summer 2027. Click here for more information about what it means to apply as test-optional.
   Note: If official test scores have not been sent, students may self-report test scores through their MyBlugold CampS portal after activating their 澳门葡京网赌送彩金 account. Students will be required to submit official ACT or SAT score results before the first day of classes if they did not choose to apply test-optional.

Note: If you’re a military member, submit Joint Service Transcript or Transcript for Community College of the Air Force.

When will you hear from us?

Typically you can expect to receive a decision within 2-3 weeks of us receiving all your application materials.
