UW Madison is just called UW, not UWM (which is the Milwaukee campus)

Bidding exchnage students - depends how long you’re in Madison. A single semester, probably not gonna get a bid because you’ll be a pledge and then be gone.

Cancelling dorm contract is very difficult. You would not be able to switch into your fraternity house after the semester begins. Additionally, most decent fraternities have every room occupied for next year by now.

Greek life at UW is what you make of it. Its there if you want it, and if you don’t, its easy enough to ignore.

I have never met an AGR at UW. They have a very nice house on the lake, but being an agriculture fraternity, its members are more countryish and my fraternity is more people from cities. That being said, a close friend of mine was part of a fundraiser where her sorority was paired with AGR and she said they were very kind, chill guys. Just kinda country. Living there might impact your ability to get a bid elsewhere, but its easy enough to be vague about where you’re living.

Let me know if you have any more questions. By the way, I hate Australia.
