Transcript:
Official transcripts may be sent either with your application, or the applicant can choose to wait to send the official transcript until after the department makes its admission decision (as long as we have an electronic copy uploaded with your supplemental application).
When sending official transcripts, we require only one set. If the original is not in English, please have a copy in English sent also.
The address that official transcripts should be sent to is: UW-Madison, Department of Statistics, 1300 University Ave., 1220 MSC, Madison, WI 53706 (USA).

Personal Statement is required
Recommendation Letter:
Three (3) letters of recommendation are required. These must be submitted electronically through the online application system:
List your references in the online application for admission. A recommendation request will be sent, by email, to each of your references. The email will include your name with a link to each department's electronic recommendation form. The request can be sent at any time providing you meet department deadlines. You can change references or send a reminder through your application.
It is common practice to contact your references ahead of time so that they expect your request.
After you have submitted your application, you can view receipt of your recommendations through the online status system.
