University of Wisconsin-Stout

First of all, I do enjoy the classes offered here and most of the teachers are very good at what they do. The problem with UW Stout isn’t the academic side, but rather the housing side. If you plan on living on campus be prepared to deal with a lot of bull. They are only after your money and could care less if you end up having to drop out because of your situation. A few examples of this that my fiancé and I experienced were as follows: If your roommate leaves/​changes rooms/​drops out and they can’t find someone to replace them, they will make you pay for a single room even if it wasn’t what you wanted. If you sign the contract to live on campus, and your situation changes and you are living somewhere else they will not let you out even if you can’t afford to pay it. The only way to get out is to drop out. The hall directors and RA’s will also give you little privacy, hassle you, and treat you like a child while they go and do the same things or worse. Even if you go to the highest up person for the hall you are staying in, they won’t show anymore respect or help you. Everyone I have come across in housing isn’t there to help you, but to f**k you over. They have been rude to me and my family, with no reason to be. I am just warning you, that if you go here make sure that you are confident in any decision you make involving housing, and also to be careful since they will milk any money they can get from you.

Go to school here. Great small town, decent amount of good restaurants, University is very hands on. ⁵⁄₅ would party here.

I was here for a football game. When it comes to the WIAC venues, this is one of the better places to watch football. Whitewater is the best, but this is decent. Not great for tailgating.

They give you computers and books to go to school here. whats not to love about that.

I graduted from UW-​Stout and although I was nervous about moving from a big city to a small town… it was totally worth it. The classes were nice and the program was current w/​projects that forced us to get out and work in our industry. I made many contacts in school that helped with getting out to interview. Also, the career services department was very helpful in setting up on campus interviews my senior year which was very convienent. Still today as an alumni I get several updates from professors about job openings and if I ever need anything I can contact them and they get back to me pretty quickly. Most of my friends in the same career cannot say as many good things about their school. This ones pretty good!
