Application procedures and lease agreements are solely the responsibility of the student renter, not the University. The private halls provide a group living situation conducive to meeting other students and help ease students into college life. The Campus Assistance Center suggests you wait until your admission to the UW-Madison is confirmed before signing a private housing contract. Denial of admission does not release you from your private housing contract. Whatever housing arrangements you intend to make, CAC strongly recommends that you visit and inspect the housing personally before making binding arrangements and urges you to read lease agreements carefully.
