威斯康星大学系统秋季入学164,579人:国际学生减少1,134人至8,889人

位于威斯康星州 Dane 县 Madison 的威斯康星大学系统(Universities of Wisconsin)10月30日公布2026年秋季第十日入学统计:系统13所大学总入学人数为164,579人,较2025年秋季减少1,233人、降幅0.7%。
系统表示,整体降幅几乎全部来自国际学生:国际学生入学人数减少1,134人,降至8,889人。系统临时校长 Renée Wachter 表示,尽管国际学生入学显著下降,全系统入学形势依然稳健,学校正通过 Direct Admit Wisconsin 直录计划、高中双学分与 UW Flexible Option 等更多通道扩大入学机会。
新生方面,全系统今秋共招收28,442名新生,仅比上年少38人;其中约7,200人经 Direct Admit Wisconsin 直录入学(上年约5,200人),占参与院校新生总数的46%。高中生提前修读大学课程的特殊入学人数创下纪录,达14,579人,同比增加857人、增幅6.2%。
各校人数方面,旗舰校 UW-Madison 为50,595人,UW-Milwaukee 为23,947人,UW-Whitewater 为12,268人,UW-Green Bay 为12,059人,UW-Oshkosh 为11,989人。系统称,学期末通常还会对入学数据作最终修订,并更新至其问责仪表板。
威斯康星大学系统共13所公立大学,在校生约16.45万人,每年授予逾3.7万个学位;该系统此前于9月公布的开学首日初步估算已显示国际学生减少约1,100人,本次第十日正式统计与之吻合。
Universities of Wisconsin Fall Enrollment Totals 164,579: International Enrollment Falls by 1,134 to 8,889
MADISON, Wisconsin — The Universities of Wisconsin on Oct. 30 released fall 2026 enrollment figures based on 10th-day counts: overall enrollment across the system's 13 public universities totaled 164,579 students, a decrease of 1,233 students, or 0.7 percent, from fall 2025.
Much of the overall decline was attributable to international enrollment, which decreased by 1,134 students to 8,889. Interim President Renée Wachter said enrollment remains strong across the Universities of Wisconsin even as international enrollment declined significantly, and that the system is expanding pathways through Direct Admit Wisconsin, high school dual enrollment and the UW Flexible Option.
First-year enrollment remained nearly unchanged, at 28,442 students, just 38 fewer than fall 2025. About 7,200 first-year students enrolled through Direct Admit Wisconsin, up from about 5,200 a year earlier, and Direct Admit students now account for 46 percent of first-year enrollment at participating universities. High school special enrollment reached a record 14,579 students, an increase of 857 students, or 6.2 percent.
By campus, UW-Madison enrolled 50,595 students, followed by UW-Milwaukee with 23,947, UW-Whitewater with 12,268, UW-Green Bay with 12,059 and UW-Oshkosh with 11,989. Final revisions to the figures are typically made at the end of the semester and updated on the system's Accountability Dashboard.
The Universities of Wisconsin serve approximately 164,500 students and award more than 37,000 degrees annually. The system's preliminary day-one estimates released in September had already pointed to a decline of roughly 1,100 international students, consistent with the final 10th-day figures.
