Wrestling colleges in Wisconsin (11)

Wisconsin is mostly public and mostly Division III. The lone D2 program is UW-Parkside in Kenosha, which competes in the NSIC. Six of the 10 Division III programs are public University of Wisconsin campuses in the WIAC: UW-Eau Claire, UW-La Crosse, UW-Oshkosh, UW-Platteville, UW-Stevens Point and UW-Whitewater. The private options cluster in the southeast: Carthage in Kenosha (CCIW), and MSOE in downtown Milwaukee, Concordia Wisconsin in Mequon and Lakeland in Plymouth, all listed under the NACC.

Cost is the headline. Federal average net price at the WIAC schools runs from about $14,158 at UW-Whitewater to $16,550 at UW-Eau Claire, and UW-Parkside is lower still at $11,772; the private colleges range from $22,453 at MSOE to $36,201 at Concordia Wisconsin. Admit rates are high nearly everywhere (75%–92% at the UW campuses), so academics are less of a filter than roster fit.

Recorded results are concentrated in the three programs with full profiles. MSOE placed fourth at the 2026 CCIW championship, won the 2026 NACC Showcase and is rated very strong on trajectory after climbing from eighth in 2023. Carthage finished sixth in 2026, rated moderate. Concordia Wisconsin was tenth in 2026 with a small published roster, which our profile flags as a strong early-lineup opportunity. WIAC results are not yet recorded in our data. 9 of the 11 programs publish a recruiting form; only Lakeland had none found and MSOE uses a general athletics form. Five programs sponsor women's wrestling. Use /compare to line up two UW campuses against a private option, and read how D3 recruiting works before you reach out.
