Adult Career and Special Student Services

Our Services

Becoming a special or guest student

Take classes for credit even if you are not currently part of a UW-Madison degree program. Or, if you aren’t interested in earning credit, auditing classes might be for you.

Career & educational planning

Talk with a professional career counselor about changing your career and/or returning to school.

Returning to school

If you are a returning adult or nontraditional student at UW-Madison, ACSSS is here to help support you and get you connected to resources.
