Student experience is at the heart of our program. We are committed to supporting each student’s academic, professional, and personal growth through dedicated advising, robust support services, and access to a wide range of campus and community resources. From the classroom to the clinic, and beyond, students are part of a vibrant community in Madison that fosters connection, well-being, and a high quality of life.
Advising
The program provides academic advising through a faculty member who serves as the program’s graduate academic advisor. Because all students take the same courses at the same time, some advising is done in a group format. Students may make individual appointments with the graduate academic advisor for the Au.D. program as needed.

National Student Speech Language Hearing Association (NSSLHA)
NSSLHA exists to provide guidance and resources to students interested in the fields of speech/language pathology and audiology. Involvement in NSSLHA leads to a fuller appreciation of the professions of speech-language pathology and audiology and a greater awareness of the issues affecting these fields. Some issues include:
- encouraging professional interest among college and university students in the study of normal and disordered human communication behavior;
- assisting college and university departments and local organizations interested in speech, hearing, and language behavior and disorders;
- providing professional information;
- providing a vehicle for student representation in matters of professional concern; and
- developing leadership skills for students. Many NSSLHA chapter presidents go on to assume leadership roles on the NSSLHA executive council and in ASHA or the state associations.
Campus Resources

Badgers work hard and play hard. After class, our students build community and stay active through a wide variety of clubs, organizations, and campus events. Because at UW–Madison, we know that real learning happens both inside and outside the classroom.
Life in Madison

Built on an isthmus between lakes Monona and Mendota, Madison is renowned for its beautiful scenery. Urban culture, natural beauty, small-town charm – the greater Madison area offers it all.
There’s also plenty to explore beyond the boundaries of the city, whether you get to know a favorite spot in one of Madison’s neighboring communities, or find a new hiking destination elsewhere in the state.
