Student Application

The SASLI 2021 Application is now open.

The SASLI 2021 Program will run remotely from June 14 – August 6. 

How to apply to SASLI:

Step 1: Fill out the online application form (see link at right).

Step 2: Pay the non-refundable application fee immediately after submitting the form. (If you have missed the link to the application fee, you can complete that payment https://charge.wisc.edu/southasia/payment.aspx)

Step 3: Send an unofficial copy of your single most recent transcript to SASLI at sasli@southasia.wisc.edu (for current students and those enrolled in the last five years). If you have attended SASLI in the past, please also include your UW-Madison transcript with your application.

Step 4: Write a short statement as to why you would like to attend SASLI (one page maximum). If no transcripts are included, please address this in your statement. If this is not addressed, we will assume your application is incomplete and missing transcripts.

Please email your transcripts and statement to sasli@southasia.wisc.edu. If you are unable to submit a digital copy of your transcript, please get in touch with us via email.

Things to remember:

• Applying to SASLI does not automatically make you eligible for a SASLI FLAS or SASLI Half/Full Fee Remission; this is a separate application process.
• The SASLI application deadline is April 1, but please apply early to help ensure that the course you are interested in will be offered.
• Your application will not be considered for admission until the $25.00 application fee has been paid and supporting materials have been received. The fee is non-refundable unless the desired course is cancelled.
• After the application has been submitted, SASLI will communicate with the applicant only, not a proxy.
