Five Things to Know: Badgers begin Big Ten Tournament

No. 5 seed wisconsin faces maryland on thursday.

(12) Maryland Logo

MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin begins postseason play on Thursday at the 2024 Big Ten Tournament in Minneapolis. The Badgers will open against No. 12 seed Maryland at approximately 1:30 p.m. (CT) on Big Ten Network.

FIVE THINGS TO KNOW:

Connor Essegian (3) against OSU during 2023 Big Ten Tournament

1. BADGERS IN THE BIG TEN TOURNAMENT

Wisconsin holds a 26-22 (.542) all-time record in 25 Big Ten Tournament appearances. The program claimed tournament titles in 2004, 2008, and 2015. The Badgers also advanced to the tournament finals in four additional years: 2005, 2007, 2013, and 2017. Wisconsin's three tournament titles trail only Michigan State (6) and Ohio State (4). 

Wisconsin is 5-7 in the Big Ten Tournament under Greg Gard, making three semifinals appearances and reaching the 2017 championship game. Last season, the Badgers faced Ohio State in the first round of the Big Ten Tournament. Despite Tyler Wahl's 19 points and 10 rebounds, UW suffered a 65-57 defeat.

Max Klesmit (11) against Rutgers earlier this season

2. POTENTIAL OPPONENTS

Wisconsin will open up play at the 2024 Big Ten Men's Basketball Tournament facing No. 12 seed Maryland on Thursday. Tip is set for approximately 1:30 p.m. (CT) on Big Ten Network.

The Terrapins finished the season with a 15-16 overall record and a 7-13 conference record. 

In the lone meeting between the two teams earlier this season, the Badgers earned a 74-70 win over Maryland at the Kohl Center.

Chucky Hepburn (23) against Purdue

3. LAST TIME OUT

The Badgers came up short against No. 3 Purdue in West Lafayette on Sunday, losing 78-70. UW was able to cut the Boilermakers' lead in the second half, bringing the deficit to just four points on two separate occasions.

John Blackwell scored a team-high 18 points off the bench in 28 minutes. Tyler Wahl had a double-double with 17 points and 10 rebounds, while AJ Storr scored 17 points. 

John Blackwell (25) against Maryland

4. BLACKWELL EARNS ANOTHER AWARD

John Blackwell earned his fourth Big Ten Freshman of the Week award on Monday. Blackwell continues to add to his strong debut campaign with the Badgers, putting up back-to-back impressive performances. He is coming off scoring 18 points against No. 3 Purdue, which ties his career high. He also dropped 17 points and grabbed eight rebounds against Rutgers earlier in the week. 

Blackwell becomes the first UW player to earn Big Ten Freshman of the Week honors four times since Nigel Hayes did so during the 2013-14 season. In fact, Blackwell and Hayes are the only two players in school history to win this award four times. 

Wisconsin huddle against Purdue

5. NCAA SELECTION SUNDAY

Following this week's Big Ten tournament, the Badgers will wait to hear their name called for the 2024 NCAA Tournament. The selection show is Sunday at 5 p.m. (CT) on CBS.

The first round of the NCAA tournament begins March 21-22 and the Final Four is set for April 6 and 8 in Glendale, Arizona.

The party Just. Keeps. Going!

As the University of Wisconsin nears the close of its 175th anniversary year, there’s one final flagship event you won’t want to miss. It’s the biggest and best yet, with more than 60 events.

UW–Madison is opening its doors wide, inviting everyone to a 175th Anniversary Community Open House April 5-7. On deck: family-friendly fun, interactive science and art activities, Bucky Badger and much more — all on campus, all open to the public and all free, even the 175 S’more Years ice cream.

“During our 175th year, at events across the state, we’ve celebrated all things UW — its people, its powerful impact, its luminous past and its bright future as a place where an idea can change the world,” says Chancellor Jennifer L. Mnookin. “With this ultimate open house, we’re inviting the community to join us for a culminating weekend on campus, with all kinds of fun and interesting activities for the whole family.”

View the full roster of events .

The weekend offers something for everyone, whether you want to interact with researchers, listen to beautiful music, explore cutting-edge science or see how cheese is made. Here are a few don’t-miss highlights:

  • Science Expeditions: Enjoy Science Spectacular shows, interact with researchers and visit exploration stations. (Various times, Friday through Sunday)
  • Wisconsin Athletics Family Fun Fair at the UW Field House: Take in interactive displays including inflatables, trophy displays and an appearance by Bucky Badger as we celebrate Wisconsin Athletics’ community connections. (Sunday, April 7 from 1-3 p.m.)

  • UW–Madison in Motion: Buckle up for a family-friendly event as we showcase the unique wheels and rides on campus and from our community partners. Check out the UW ice cream truck, the Bucky Wagon, Madison Fire Department trucks and UW Police Department vehicles. If they’re able, Med Flight may even make an appearance. (Lot 131, Sunday, April 7 from 10 a.m.-noon)
  • Celebrate 175 Years of UW (with free samples, prizes and sales) : University Book Store is celebrating the anniversary weekend with local treats, amazing discounts and free, official 175th-anniversary ice cream and the official 175th-anniversary cheese. (Friday through Sunday from 10 a.m.-5 p.m.)

“This past year, we’ve looked back on UW ideas that changed the world and looked ahead at how this institution will continue to improve lives and strengthen communities across Wisconsin through its unwavering commitment to the Wisconsin Idea,” says Charles Hoslet, vice chancellor for university relations and chair of the 175th Anniversary Steering Committee. “It’s been gratifying to see how much this institution means to so many people in this state and beyond. We are excited about hosting this open house as another way to share the many facets of the state’s flagship university with the community and to usher in the next 175 years.”

Although the community open house will be the final 175th flagship celebration, related anniversary events will continue, including a performance by the ska band the Skatalites at Memorial Union on April 25 and the UW 175th Anniversary Crazylegs Classic on April 27. For details about these and other events, see the UW 175 events calendar and the list of state stops on the 175th tour.

The four panels of the Seed by Seed banner hangs between tall, white columns above the building's main entrance. The banner has been printed with a texture resembling beadwork and contains symbols and colors representing traditions of the Ho-Chunk Nation. Four green rings represent the four lakes of Teejop, the name the Ho-Chunk give the land now occupied by UW–Madison. Inside each ring, square patches in light blue, dark blue yellow and red represent the reflections of light on the water at different times of day. Two large pink triangles on either side of the banner represent flowers, with green stems and triangular leaves leading to the center panel. On the center panel, a large diamond made of small blue triangles frames a blue thunderbird, which is flanked by two red, abstract W's, representing UW–Madison. Below the thunderbird are two green water spirits, which resemble four-legged animals with very long tails. Below the water spirits are six light blue triangles representing water. Above and below the large diamond frame are bursts of yellow beading, representing the sun. Along the bottom border of the banners are stylized animal symbols of the twelve clans of the Ho-Chunk Nation, and beneath each animal is a traditional Ho-Chunk flower motif in blue and green.

A cumulative GPA of 3.2 or higher is required for the BS Nursing to MPH Advanced Degree option.

In addition, candidates must have successfully completed at least one semester of college-level biology, chemistry or physics.

As required by our accreditation through CEPH, all students must meet one of two criteria to fulfill our Foundational Knowledge requirement:

  • A bachelor’s degree in public health from a U.S. accredited institution
  • Successful completion of UW–Madison undergrad course POP HLTH 370 Public Health: Local to Global Perspectives

Incoming students who do not meet either of the two criteria options will be required to take the MPH program’s free, online Foundational Knowledge course the summer prior to beginning the MPH program The MPH program will administer this course. You will be contacted by the program if you are required to take the course.

Public Health Experience

Public health-related experience is highly recommended. This includes working in public health departments, volunteer organizations and health care organizations that do not focus solely on patient care. Clinical care alone does not constitute public health experience.

Applicants who apply immediately or soon after completing their bachelor’s degree may have less experience than applicants with several years of work experience. Recent graduates may choose to reference courses taken as an undergrad, semesters abroad or volunteer experience that contributed to their interest in public health.

Recommendations and Personal Statement

Three letters of recommendation are required. (For dual degree students, one of these letters will be an automatically generated letter from your current program regarding your standing.)

A personal statement is most effective when it outlines why you are interested in public health and what you plan to do with your degree.

Dual Degree Applicants

Applicants currently enrolled in an approved MPH dual degree program must be in good academic standing in their current program. The MPH program will verify academic standing with the applicant’s home program. This letter counts as one of the three required letters of recommendation for the application.

For all dual degree programs, admissions decisions for each program will be made separately by each program. Following acceptance of a student into both programs (at the same time, or sequentially), the student is responsible for notifying both programs of their intent to pursue the dual degree and have credits counted accordingly.

MD-MPH, Nursing to MPH and PharmD-MPH Admissions

MD-MPH Students may apply to the MD-MPH program , through AMCAS, during the MD application process . This option is recommended for students who plan to complete their MPH year prior to starting the MD program. These applicants will be required to complete a streamlined application to the MPH program. Students will be notified by the program when this application must be filled out. Previously admitted MD students may also apply directly to the MPH program (not through AMCAS), during an MPH application cycle, within the first three years of the MD program.

Nursing to MPH Nursing students interested in the Nursing to MPH dual degree apply to the MPH program during their first year in the nursing program.

PharmD-MPH Students currently enrolled in the PharmD program may apply during an MPH application cycle, within the first two years of pharmacy school.

DPT-MPH, MGCS-MPH and MPAS-MPH Admissions

Applicants to these programs will be reviewed by the non-MPH program first, before being reviewed by the MPH program.

DPT-MPH Applicants to the Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) program apply to the DPT-MPH program , through PTCAS, during the DPT application process and submit an additional essay indicating why they are interested in the dual degree.

MGCS-MPH Applicants to the Master of Genetic Counselor Studies (MGCS) program apply to the MGCS-MPH program during the MGCS application process and submit an additional personal statement.

MPAS-MPH Applicants to the Master of Physician Assistant Studies (MPAS) program apply to the MPAS-MPH program , through CASPA, during the PA program application process and are required to complete a supplemental personal statement describing their interest and experience in public health.

DVM-MPH, JD-MPH and MPA-MPH Admissions

Students interested in the DVM-MPH , JD-MPH or MPA-MPH programs must apply separately to both programs and admissions criteria for both programs must be met.

Application Fee

A non-refundable fee of $75, paid using a debit or credit card, is required before applications are reviewed. The application fee is waived for applicants:

  • Currently enrolled in a UW–Madison graduate degree program
  • Currently enrolled in an approved MPH dual degree program
  • Previously enrolled in a UW–Madison graduate degree program, within the last five years
  • Currently applying for graduate studies in more than one area at UW–Madison and have already paid the $75 application fee to the UW–Madison Graduate School or other UW–Madison professional degree program

International Applicants

In addition to the required MPH application materials, international applicants are required to submit official scores from an English language proficiency test and their international academic records.

English Language Proficiency Tests

Applicants from countries where English is not the official language or whose undergraduate instruction was not in English must provide official scores from the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) taken within the last five years. A score of 600 (written), 250 (computer-based) or 100 (online version) or above is required.

Alternative: International English Language Testing System (IELTS) (minimum score of 7.5)

International Academic Records

Applicants who attended a post-secondary institution outside of the United States must have their academic records evaluated by a National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES) member. An official evaluation report from a NACES member organization must also be received for the application to be considered complete. Your NACES evaluation should be sent directly to the Master of Public Health program office.

Evaluations may also be sent electronically to [email protected] .

The School of Nursing works with students as they complete graduation requirements and the two-step process to register for the NCLEX.

This $53.3 million nursing building features world-class technology and innovative educational spaces that will allow the nursing school to address health care’s new standard of excellence—high-tech and high-touch methods and practices that result in better patient outcomes and greater satisfaction with care.

office of Academic Affairs

The Office of Academic Affairs is the undergraduate dean's office for the School of Nursing. Staff members interpret school regulations, policies, and program requirements; make exceptions around requirements and deadlines; advise prospective and current students; monitor students having academic difficulties; coordinate compliance; facilitate the program's admissions process; and maintain the official files of students in the school.

Academic Advising

Academic advising is an essential component of undergraduate education. The primary advising mission in the School of Nursing is to help students identify and clarify their academic pathways and educational goals, and to help them develop meaningful plans to ensure academic success. Advising is an ongoing, caring, and collaborative relationship between advisor and student that provides meaning, guidance, and support throughout the educational process. Every pre-nursing (PRN) and nursing (NUR) student is assigned a professional advisor in the nursing school . Advising is offered in individual appointments, group advising, and graduation checks for seniors.

In addition to professional academic advisors, the School of Nursing has career advising available to help students prepare for a successful career in nursing. Services include resume and job search assistance, online job postings, information sessions, and nursing career fairs.

Academic Support Services

Career & Student Success  Academic Support has a mission to develop the next generation of nurse leaders by providing holistic, culturally congruent student support across four dimensions: academic support, leadership and connection, career development, and wellness throughout the student experience.  Students can gather with other like-minded, focused, and enthusiastic students to improve not only their understanding of the course material but of their own learning styles. Sessions are designed to assist pre-nursing and nursing students in weekly small-group study formats. Current courses supported include anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, and pathology, as well as courses in the nursing curriculum. Workshops and other sessions help students with test preparation, study skills, time management, etc.

Student Organizations

The School of Nursing encourages and supports students to pursue their interests and form social networks. In addition to numerous associations available to students on the broader campus (including the Aspiring Nurses Association [ANA] for pre-nursing students), there are a number of student-run groups established specifically for current nursing students. These include the Student Nurses’ Association, the Multicultural Student Nurses’ Organization, the Nurse’s Christian Fellowship, the Global Health Interest Group, the Holistic Nursing Group, the Perinatal Interest Group, and the Student Geriatric Interest Group. The purpose of these groups is to give students the opportunity to enhance their experiences related to professional development, social circles, political action, community service, and academic achievement, as well as foster connections between faculty, staff, and students.

Financial Aid and Scholarships

The School of Nursing awards more than $400,000 in scholarships each year to admitted undergraduate nursing students. Awards are based on both academic merit and financial need. Students are invited to apply to nursing specific scholarships, as well as campus-wide or non-nursing scholarships, through the Wisconsin Scholarship Hub or  WiSH .
