Please follow the following 4 steps to enroll.

Step 1) Getting admitted to UW Madison as a Special (non-degree) Student
You can apply to the UW online at http://apply.wisconsin.edu/msn/special. In about two weeks you’ll receive a letter from the Adult and Student Services Center confirming your admission. Be sure to save this letter as you will need your 10-digit Student ID number provided. If you have questions about the status of your application or trouble completing the online application contact the Adult and Student Services Center, 608-263-6960.

Step 2) Activating your NetID and Password
After you receive your 10-digit Student ID go on-line to My UW http://my.wisc.edu and click on the “Activate your NetID” link near the top of the page. (If you have a UW email account, your NetID is the portion before @wisc.edu) Step-by-step instructions, including images of the web pages can be viewed at http://registrar.wisc.edu/Enrollment_demos.php#EnrollmentDemos.
When you activate your NetID you will create your own password. Retain both of these as you will need them to enroll. If you have problems activating your NetID or forget your password contact the DoIT help desk at 608-264-4357.

Step 3) Enrolling in your Class
To enroll, go to MyUW, http://my.wisc.edu , insert your NetID and password then click on “Student Center” and “Add a Class.” A new browser window should open, select the correct enrollment term and input the five digit class number listed in the UW timetable. At this point a new screen should pop-up showing the class you have selected. Under the “Class Preferences” section, you will find the word “Units”. You can select the number of credits based upon your professional development needs. (If you opt for 3 credits you will be expected to develop and lesson plan appropriate for your grade level that will be made freely available to other educators.) Proceed through enrollment and confirm that the course information is correct before clicking on “Finish Enrolling”. If you have any problems or questions contact the Enrollment Help Desk, 608-262-0920 or the Adult and Student Services Center, 608-263-6960. Be sure to enroll before the cut-off date to avoid a $25 late fee.

Step 4) Paying for your class
Tuition for one credit is approximately $300 with out-of-state educators paying the same as in-state residents. You can expect a bill from the UW Bursar’s Office within two weeks of enrolling. Be sure to pay by the due date to avoid a late fee. If you have any questions about the billing process call the Bursars office at 608-262-3611.
