<p>I was wondering if the accepted people applied to the honors program.
Since honors admission can't happen until students are accepted, I think those people are first priority to review, thus getting early acceptances.
I know some people who are qualified, but still at the "we have received..." stage and they did not apply to honors. I feel like people at that status are still pending to be reviewed, so I think I won't get my letter until the deadline is well passed.
What do you guys think?</p>
<p>I applied November 23 and was accepted December 31 but I did not apply for the honors program.</p>
<p>yeah i applied to the honors program. i vaguely remember they said they won’t let us know till spring.</p>
<p>^ i remember a friend of mine getting her acceptance letter for UW in mid-jan last year, then the honors letter arrived in mid-feb.</p>
<p>true…my friend, who got it early January, told me today that she didn’t apply to honors. she has a high gpa (took a lot of IB), but her SAT score is really bad (way below avg.)
gosh, i really don’t know how UW is doing this… i guess they are taking the outstanding students first, but this waiting is pretty painful…i keep checking myuw like every hour lol.</p>
<p>Applied 11/25. Accepted 12/22. Applied to Honors, received e-mail confirmation that Honors app complete 1/8. Good luck to everyone. I know the waiting is awful and draining, I was there… Hang in there.</p>
<p>Applied 11/23… accepted 12/18. Applied to honors, but I haven’t received an email confirmation about my honors app?</p>
<p>^^ajitx0, the e-mail subject was the “UW Recommendation Confirmation” which indicated, “…acknowledge of a letter of recommendation for your app to the Honors Program at UW. Thank you…and your file is complete.” It seems that they didn’t get my the letter of recommendation for quite some time.</p>
<p>Oh, so just a confirmation of the letter of recommendation… strange, they sent me a confirmation on 11/25, 2 days after I turned in my app/teacher turned in letter of rec.</p>
<p>my d was applied for honors on the 12/14 was given acceptance letter on the 12/30 but letter did not include anything about honors acceptance. </p>
<p>i see that some of u sent in teachers recommendation letter … is this required ? i don’t remember her sending in anything except applying online?</p>
<p>yeah it’s required. it was due the 15th. hopefully she sent it without your knowledge?</p>
