The UW-Milwaukee Admissions Portal is an online platform that helps prospective students manage their application process. After submitting their application, students can use the portal to track its progress, upload required documents, and stay updated on any changes or decisions regarding their admission status.

Once admitted, students should regularly check their portal, as it will update with important next steps on the journey to becoming a Panther.

To access the Admissions Portal, students need to activate their epantherID, which can be done by following the activation instructions sent via email 2-3 days after applying. Be sure to remind your student to save their login credentials, as they’ll need them throughout their time at UWM.
