BMHS is currently accepting nominations to name our 2025 inductee for the Hall of Fame.
The Beloit Memorial High School Hall of Fame was established for the purpose of identifying and recognizing graduates of Beloit Memorial High School who have made significant contributions to their professions and their communities. They serve as role models of achievement for our current student body. The first recognition was made in 1994.
The office of Alumni Services is accepting nominations for the Alumni Hall of Fame Award. Nominations may come from alumni, administrators, faculty members, parents, or friends of Beloit Memorial High School. The nominee must be a graduate of BMHS. To be considered for the current year, nominations must be received by the Office of Alumni Services no later than January 31, 2025 (11:59 pm), using this nomination form.
Direct Admit Wisconsin
Dear Parent/Guardian of BMHS Juniors:
Beloit Memorial High School is participating in a state program called Direct Admit Wisconsin. Direct Admit Wisconsin is designed to provide a place for all Wisconsin high school students to access a world-class public post-secondary education by proactively offering direct admission to Wisconsin universities.
10 UW schools are currently participating in Direct Admit Wisconsin. They are UW-Green Bay, UW-Milwaukee, UW-Oshkosh, UW-Parkside, UW-Platteville, UW-River Falls, UW-Stevens Point, UW-Stout, UW-Superior and UW-Whitewater.
Direct Admit Wisconsin changes the process for admission to these 10 participating UW universities. The table below provides information that compares Direct Admit Wisconsin with the traditional university admission process:
For further information on Direct Admit Wisconsin please see the following FAQ at: https://www.wisconsin.edu/direct-admissions/
We will continue to share information in the coming weeks ahead. In the meantime, please be sure to review Direct Admit WI Student & Family Informational Slidedeck, and reach out to your student’s school counselor if you have any questions.
Reviewing your student’s 11th-grade transcript will determine if your student meets the Direct Admit Wisconsin program criteria. You and your student will receive an email before the beginning of their senior year indicating which UW schools are providing them direct admission if they meet the criteria, and the next steps to take to learn more about enrolling in the Direct Admit Wisconsin designated schools. Participating in this program does not commit your student to attend a University of Wisconsin school, however, it does provide them the option.
To facilitate the administration of this program, the following information will be shared by Beloit Memorial High School with the 10 participating UW schools:
Name
WISEid
Local Student District ID
Contact information
Legal gender identity
Race/ethnicity
GPA
High school transcripts
