Major/Certificate Declaration Pause

Computer Sciences Advising Team will be pausing Computer Sciences major and certificate declaration processing from November 10 through November 26. All declaration requests submitted by 8:00 am on November 10 will be processed, but after that we will be putting our processing on pause until the morning of November 27. The declaration request forms will still be open for submission, but the processing of request forms will be paused. This timeline will also be posted on our website and forms. Once we resume processing, students who have submitted a request will receive an e-mail welcoming them to the Comp Sci major/certificate.

Please note that Comp Sci enrollment restrictions on some Comp Sci courses are in effect until Wednesday, November 29.

Mandatory Major Declaration Holds

L&S students who may have a Mandatory Major Declaration Hold can still connect with CS advisors via advising@cs.wisc.edu or via an advising appointment to have discussions about their Comp Sci major declaration plans.

Interested in CS, but Haven't Declared?

Starting the week of November 6, Comp Sci advisors will be hosting limited advising appointments for undeclared, CS-interested students. We will resume having more open appointments for all CS-interested students during the week of December 4.

Want to be a WACM Mentor or Mentee?

Apply by TODAY, Monday, November 6, 2023!

UW Madison’s chapter of ACM's Women in Computing organization (WACM) is hosting its annual Mentoring Program! This year-long program is targeted towards women & non-binary students who are looking to connect with others and learn more about Computer Science and technology within academia and industry.

WACM is currently looking for students who are interested in participating either as a mentee (Freshman/Sophomore-level undergraduates) or a mentor (graduate students, Junior/Senior-level undergraduates). Mentors will lead mentoring families with up to 3-4 mentees and engage with students through both organized and informal events throughout the year. Participants will have the flexibility to cater the experience to their group with the guidance of WACM and other mentors/mentees! Don’t worry if you’re unsure about which application to fill; we encourage you to apply to the one you align with the most, and always email us with any questions!

Why should you join the mentoring program?

• Meet in a small group setting with peers just as fascinated with computing and tech as you are.
• Participate in mentoring program-only events — last year, we had events like succulent planting, cookie decorating, and a final picnic!
• Gain confidence and learn about how you can succeed

If you are interested in participating in the program as either a mentor or mentee, please fill out the form before Monday, 11/6 at 11:59 PM CST and we will reach out to you shortly with the finalized mentoring families!

 Your feedback is always appreciated!

Please contact kseow@wisc.edu or any of the Mentoring Co-Chairs, if you have any questions; we’re excited to see you soon!
