Prospective Graduate Student Welcome Event

For all prospective students who have been accepted to our graduate program please plan on joining the Department of Art History for the annual Prospective Grad Student Welcome Days Event which is typically held on Thursday and Friday of the first or second week of March (check the EVENTS calendar for details).  Specific details will be sent out to all admitted students soon after students have been notified of their acceptance, but for planning purposes please note the following details as you set aside time for your campus visit:

For prospective students submitting applications to be considered for admission during the Fall 2020 academic year, our Welcome Days Event will be held on Thursday, March 5th and Friday, March 6th. The typical schedule includes a welcome reception which is held in the evening on Thursday, and typically begins ~ 5:30 PM.  On Friday, we usually begin the day with a light breakfast beginning at 9:00 AM and conclude with dinner beginning ~ 6:30 PM (typically lasts ~ 2 hrs.).  The majority of guests arrive earlier in the day on Thursday and depart on Saturday morning but there are always some who like to arrive earlier and/or leave later so there is more time to explore the city.

*IMPORTANT:  Please don’t make travel arrangements, or lodging accommodations, until you have received confirmation of being accepted into the Graduate Program AND have received details about the Welcome Event from the Graduate Program Coordinator: Teddy Kaul, ejkaul@wisc.edu, 608-263-2373.
