Attending college in Wisconsin and unsure how to vote? Here's our Election 2024 student voter guide
College students can play a pivotal role in a swing state like Wisconsin, where elections are often won by razor-thin margins.
For most student voters, Nov. 5 will mark their first time casting a ballot in a presidential election.
Voting rules can be confusing to navigate — and even more so for college students, most of whom live at a new address each school year. Here's a guide on what to know, where to register and how to vote:
If you are going to college in a different city than your hometown, here are some factors the U.S. Election Assistance Commission offers for consideration when deciding where to vote:
Which location is more convenient for you?
Who is on the ballot in each place?

Where you register to vote will not affect your federal financial aid, including FAFSA, Pell Grants, Perkins or Stafford loans.
