The University of Wisconsin–Superior is a public liberal arts university in Superior, Wisconsin, United States. UW–Superior grants associate, bachelor's, master's and specialist's degrees. The university enrolls approximately 2,900 students as of fall 2025.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: the $13,405 average net price and relatively low debt at graduation ($14,055) make this one of the more affordable public options in the region, which matters. But a 44% graduation rate is a real concern — fewer than half of students who start here finish — and median earnings of $39,800 a decade out suggest limited career lift for most graduates. Worth considering if cost is the top priority and you have a clear plan to stay enrolled, but students who need stronger academic momentum or career outcomes may want to compare options carefully.
