Campus Facilities
Madison has excellent facilities whether educational or recreational. The gyms are absolutely fantastic, and there are exercise classes for pretty much everything. The unions are also great places to hang out; the new union is an extremely popular place to hang out and study. The libraries are also great, and they stay open well after midnight.

Off-Campus Housing
There are plenty of places to live both on and off campus. The houses are all pretty run-down...just what you'd expect for a college campus. The apartments, however, can be very nice. The off-campus housing is pretty close to campus, and bussing is always available if necessary. The management is decent. The only complaint is that rent can be really expensive in Madison.

Greek Life
Greek life isn't a very prominent scene in Madison, but the students that do participate seem to love it.

Overall Experience
Life does not get any better than being at Madison. The people are amazing, there's always something fun to do, and the sense of pride that consumes the school is unmatched by any other campus I've been to. Classes are difficult, but everyone is willing to help each other out, and most TAs and professors really do care. I've never worked so hard in my life, but it's absolutely worth it to get good grades from such a great university. If I could, I would stay at this college for the rest of my life.

Scholarships
There are lots of scholarships, especially if you search in your specific department. However, it's such a large university that actually obtaining any scholarships is difficult.
