Communication

Official University Communication

The University of Wisconsin-Madison mandates that all students activate and use their wisc.edu email accounts. This is the only email address the School of Nursing and university uses to communicate with students.

Students are responsible for the content of any email that is sent via the university as well as the School of Nursing.

Students need to remember to include their student ID number in any correspondence with University faculty or staff.
