Message from the Director
 Welcome to the Office of Academic Services website. As our mission states, our staff is responsible for providing student-athletes, through an enriching environment, the maximum opportunity for academic achievement. The University of Wisconsin - Madison is one of the nation’s top 10 public institutions, and we work to continue the tradition of excellence through supporting our student-athletes in their academic endeavors.
The Office of Academic Services staff members have a wealth of experience and knowledge and offer guidance in course and major selection, tutorial services, career and personal development, and learning strategy improvement. To enhance the overall student-athlete experience, we also provide comprehensive life skills programming dedicated to developing the whole person.
We monitor eligibility and academic progress consistent with University, Big Ten, and NCAA rules and regulations through a partnership with coaches, faculty and staff, compliance personnel and our administrators.
Our team is committed to supporting the educational aspirations of our 750 student-athletes, providing outstanding services and an environment that allows our student-athletes to be as successful as possible. From their transition as first-year students to the time they graduate, we strive to ensure our student-athletes have the maximum opportunity for academic and personal success.
Please take the time to navigate through our website and when you are on campus, feel free to stop by the Fetzer Academic Centers at the Kohl Center and in Camp Randall.
On Wisconsin!
Jason Holtman
Assistant Athletic Director for Academic Services
