University of Wisconsin-Stout

UW-Stout has good facilities for a reasonable price. With the high cost of most colleges, Stout offers a great middle ground between price and quality. They also have a large variety of student organizations to foster friendships between students.

As a visitor whose boyfriend is currently enrolled at the University of Wisconsin-Stout, I have been truly impressed with the campus. Hearing about his experiences has inspired me to consider attending myself to pursue a BFA in Game and Interactive Media Design. The classes sound excellent, and it’s clear that the professors are dedicated to providing support to their students. As a hands-on learner, I appreciate how interactive the university’s approach is; it aligns perfectly with my preferred style of learning. I’m excited about the prospect of gaining new knowledge at Stout, especially after my time at Mid-State Technical College.

I absolutely love Stout. It's a great school, great staff and I just love Menomonie. The only thing I would say is some of the professors have their doctorates degrees and PhD and a lot of them make errors with grades, questions and answers. I have to correct my professors a lot which gets a little annoying.

I personally love UW-Stout, very inclusive and you can find people like you in so many different spaces! My freshman year I was in the School of Art and Design and their curriculum is top tier, you learn from professors who work in the industry no matter what major or program you plan to study! It's a great school and I'm proud to be a student at Stout!

I think it's an excellent school with knowledgeable professors teaching and valuable connections to be made, but for me it's just way too expensive. I will most likely finish the semester and transfer to a much cheaper school until I can afford to finish here.

Most people who attend UW-Stout have heard the phrase "When in doubt, go to Stout." However, the academics are fairly rigorous, especially in the School of Art and Design. As Stout is a polytechnic school, there is a consistent integration of career-relevant skills and hands-on learning. The polytechnic aspect is certainly the strongest draw for me personally, and I find myself consistently challenged by my courses. The art and design building has a variety of labs with tools available to students, and fairly high-quality equipment. The Process Lab has many power tools and supplies, along with staff that can help art students build nearly anything. Overall, the school goes far beyond it's reputation as "the easy way out," and a good placement rate for jobs in the field of graduates.

This school provides a small, yet expansive experience for any student wishing to further their skills. Teachers are involved and expecting every student to push themselves to their potential. Like many small towns which house a University, there isn't much to do in the city outside of a few small shops downtown and the marvelous natural foods store. However, the UW-Stout makes up for that by supporting over 200 after school clubs, and so many labs to create in, if you take advantage of everything you'll never go bored!

UW - Stout employs a very friendly and helpful staff. All of the professors have solid office hours and want you to use them. It's a smaller campus distance wise, so the walk to classes are not bad. Many on-campus job opportunities as well. Overall Stout is one of the better public schools in Wisconsin.

When I visited UW-Stout, I stayed with the cross country/Track athletes. I was able to get the true college feel while being there. Overall the campus is beautiful and I really enjoyed my stay. The team had great chemistry and I felt like it could be really easy to fit in at the college. I attend a small high school so transitioning into college life at Stout would be very easy due to their small class sizes. Overall, I enjoyed my visit at Stout a lot and feel as though it is a great school.

It is an open, helpful campus with plenty of clubs and extra curriculars. This school does not focus on sports, but the art scene is gigantic. The game design and development - art major is excellent, with a newly renovated wing for their capstone classes.

I'm a Freshman at UW-Stout this year. Thus far the school has been good. The teachers here have been very helpful and approachable; they are truly committed to their students and want them to succeed. For the most part my peers have been nice, approachable and approachable. As I design student I value that we are getting to actually learn the tools hands on instead of someone lecturing at us on how to use them. It's also nice that 95% of the classes for art design students are in laboratory classes versus lecture. The campus has safe, easy to navigate, the campus police are always driving around, very approachable and want to be friends with you not against you. Stout is also right across the street from the police and fire department. There's not really a whole lot going and most students seem to hang out versus go to events. I feel that school truly does love ALL of its student no matter background, sexuality or race. It's a very industry oriented and it shows. The students are truly Stout Proud.

Amazing. The overall love and support around campus is amazing. For the large community of art students there is an art store right off campus that works with faculty to help get the best prices and the materials you need quick and easy. Theres endless clubs to join and all are welcoming. The food tastes freakin' amazingly and at an equally great and cheap price.

I have just completed four years of undergraduate study at UW-Stout, and now will be pursuing my masters degree online through UW-Stout as well. The campus community is very welcoming to all students, and there are activities going on for students of all interests. Stout has some unique programs of study and places an emphasis on hands-on learning. I met a lot of great people and found opportunities I may not have elsewhere.

I really enjoy attending Stout. The professors are very easy to get to know and are very helpful, they are what make Stout so great. The on-campus housing is progressively getting better through many remodels. The off-campus housing is kind of gross, and the good houses are far away from campus. The food is good! I enjoy spending lots of time at the library, which is a super great place to find books and do homework. I feel satisfied with the level of academic challenge and opportunity.

I love the school. The classes sizes are great and the teachers are knowledgable. The campus is safe and the town is nice and not overly busy or sketchy. The school is very inclusive with its diversity and is working towards becoming even more so. There is always things to do on campus, weekdays and weekends.
