The 2023-24 academic year at University of Wisconsin-Stout has kicked off with positive news — more first-year and international students and increased financial support for all students.
The university has seen an important increase in first-year students and a double-digit increase in international students, the latter for the second straight year. Nearly 250 international students from 43 countries are enrolled.
“As Wisconsin’s polytechnic university, UW-Stout is distinct among all other colleges and universities in the state,” said Chancellor Katherine Frank. “Our focus on applied learning across all disciplines, career-readiness and business and industry collaboration allows us to help students enter high-demand careers immediately following graduation better than any other institution in the state.”
