Wisconsin Direct Admit is a statewide program from the Universities of Wisconsin that helps simplify the college admissions process. Through this program, New Glarus High School students can receive early admission offers to several UW universities based on their GPA at the end of junior year—often without completing a traditional application, essay, or paying a fee. For families, this means less stress and more clarity, as students may know their college options before senior year begins and can focus on choosing the best fit and planning for financial aid. During registration for the upcoming school year, families will need to opt out if they do not want their student to participate in the program. Senior students will receive information about the universities they are admitted to at the beginning of August via postal mail and email.
If you have questions about Direct Admit Wisconsin- please visit https://www.wisconsin.edu/undergraduate-admission-resources/admission-pathways-for-wisconsin-high-school-students/direct-admit-wisconsin/. As always, you can reach out to high school counselor Kali Montgomery for more information as well.

Hard work, early mornings, and a passion for agriculture! 🐮🚜
Check out this inspiring story from the Dairy Star featuring New Glarus High School senior Zack Moldenhauer. Through his Youth Apprenticeship program, Zack has been gaining incredible hands-on experience at Brandon Flannery’s dairy farm—often starting his chores as early as 4:20 AM!
Even though Zack didn’t grow up on a farm, he has spent the last three years mastering everything from milking to prepping champion show cows. His mentor, Brandon, says Zack’s work ethic and reliability are second to none—proving that the skills learned in a youth apprenticeship (like responsibility and quick thinking) translate to any career.
Zack is currently balancing his farm work with fire academy training at Blackhawk Technical College to become a firefighter. 🚒
Congratulations, Zack, on your success in the show ring and for showing us all what dedication looks like! 🌟
