University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee

I have a lot of Milwaukee Pride and love going to school in my home but I have had many problems with the Advising staff. My current Advisor in the Education Department is wonderful and extremely helpful but the Advisor I had prior to her was horrid. She knew nothing and every time I asked a question she would hand me literature to read myself. Zero help and ended up in the wrong major because of it. Otherwise the school is great and I really do enjoy it. I just run into staff that are bad at their jobs sometimes. My advise is just make sure your advisors know what they are talking about so you don’t waste time and money.

I have no experience with living on campus, so I can't speak to that. However, I found the staff to be very helpful and the instructors knowledgeable and understanding. It was easy enough for me to figure out my own schedule thanks to their online resources, but I never had trouble getting ahold of my advisors, either. Lots of classes are offered online. The library is great. They also have shuttles you can ride for free to avoid parking on school grounds. Overall, I would absolutely recommend UWM to any adult/returnjng student.

My experience with UW-Milwaukee's Study abroad program was absolutely terrible. I was discriminated for my age, sex, and gender, and because of those factors, was told I was not a good fit.

Daughter had a great experience attending some courses through the Youth Options program at her High school.
