Accommodation image

UW–Madison provides residence-hall information and housing guidance through its student-living services, but accommodation availability and prices vary by hall, room type and academic year. The 2025–26 undergraduate cost-of-attendance estimate uses $14,520 for housing and meals for a nine-month period; the graduate estimate uses $16,414. Treat these as planning figures, not a guaranteed residence price, and compare university housing with Madison private rentals before accepting an offer.
Daily living support image
Image placeholder
Madison has campus dining and grocery options, while UW–Madison’s student services can advise on food access and dietary needs. Students should review current dining menus, meal-plan terms and any allergy or religious-diet accommodation process directly with campus dining before arrival; the university’s cost-of-attendance housing-and-meals allowance is a budget estimate rather than a meal-plan quote.
Safety and support image
Image placeholder
UW–Madison publishes campus safety information and maintains campus emergency and support services. Students should save the university’s emergency contacts, review safety alerts and understand that support systems do not remove the need for ordinary precautions, especially during winter travel and late-night movement across a large campus. International Student Services supports immigration advising and arrival guidance, while the Graduate School provides programme contacts, funding guidance and professional-development resources. Undergraduate applicants use Admissions and Recruitment; graduate applicants use the Graduate School and programme instructions. Keep academic and immigration documents ready and follow the exact school-level steps.
