I transferred to UW-Madison my sophomore year and have been on the Dean's List each year since. I’m graduating in December 2024 with a degree in Consumer Behavior & Marketplace Studies. My experience here has been enriched by academic challenges and the vibrant campus life Madison offers, from its inspiring community to opportunities that have shaped my growth and career path.
I attended UW Oshkosh for a semester, focusing on general courses while living and working from home to save money before transferring. After moving home from La Crosse, this period gave me a chance to regroup, make some income, and plan for my transition to UW-Madison.
I began my college journey at UW La Crosse, taking general courses, but I quickly realized it wasn’t the right fit for me. Deciding to move back home set me on the path that ultimately led me to UW-Madison.
