Voter Identification

Voter Registration

Lawrence University works closely with the City of Appleton's Clerk's Office to provide proof of residence so you can register to vote in Wisconsin if you are eligible. You will be able to vote immediately after completing registration. If you live on campus, Lawrence has provided your proof of residence to Appleton City's Clerk's Office.

Confirm you are registered to vote in Wisconsin by visiting myvote.wi.gov. 

You can also register at the polls immediately after completing registration. Be sure to bring your Voter ID. 

Escorts to Campus Polling Location

If you would like someone to go with you to the polls to register or vote, escorts are available. Stop by the Warch Campus Center Info Desk for details regarding who the escorts are for any given election day.  Students, staff and faculty are on cue as volunteers.
