Why UW-Superior?
UW-Superior is a public university offering a quality liberal arts education combined with solid professional training.

Simply put, a liberal arts education teaches students how to think, how to analyze and solve problems, and how to continue learning throughout their lives. That's important because while some job skills may become obsolete, the ability to think and to learn new skills will always be valuable.

As part of a liberal arts education, we provide students with career skills in a wide range of fields -- business, science, teaching, social work, art, music and many, many more. If a student isn't sure what major to choose, we work with him or her to explore various academic and career fields.

Our strengths
All universities have different strengths. At UW-Superior, one of our strengths is our size. As the smallest comprehensive university in the University of Wisconsin System, we can offer a high-quality, personalized approach to education. Students can get to know their professors and gain the full benefit of their knowledge and experience. They can get opportunities to participate in campus organizations and academic programs.

Our location also is a strength. Our campus is located in a quiet neighborhood, and it feels like a small community where students can get to know each other and see familiar faces. Yet we offer all the services and benefits of the UW System, and we're in a metro area that offers the advantages of jobs, entertainment and cultural activities.

Another important factor is cost: UW-Superior offers a quality education at a reasonable cost, with considerable financial aid available.

Visit campus
We strongly recommend students and their parents visit our campus and talk to professors and students before choosing a university. We think you'll be impressed by our commitment to teaching and individual attention. Our Admissions Office can work with you to arrange a visit.
