<p>Do you think they figured out this glitch in their admission process and are now being more careful about uploading it?</p>
<p>on a different forum someone was saying that they don’t finalize your transcript before you pay your deposit because it would be too time consuming, something like that.</p>
<p>and they still haven’t said a thing regarding admissions… i have had a pit in my stomach since Wednesday.</p>
<p>Nothing in the mail from UW today. Guess maybe Monday?</p>
<p>Nothing from UW for me either. I live just outside of Seattle.</p>
<p>^ ditto (10 char.)</p>
<p>Seriously, why do we have to wait for snail mail? What decade is this? Why can’t they just post decisions online like EVERYBODY else? And I heard that 3/15 was the day they were going to mail the envelopes, so the earliest anyone might hear would be tomorrow, I guess. For me, out of state, who knows? :/</p>
<p>yeah how does saturday mailing work?</p>
<p>International Freshman Applicant. Still no news 
Been waiting all day :(</p>
<p>Suburb of Seattle here. Nothing in the mail.</p>
<p>Read this on a friend’s status on Facebook. Not sure where she got it, but anyways:</p>

Subject: [hsforum] UW decision letters are on their way</p>
<p>Dear Colleagues,</p>
<p>The University of Washington (Seattle campus) has started to mail decision letters, and many of your students will receive their letters throughout next week (the week starting March 18th).</p>
<p>I don’t think you will notice substantially different decisions this year. As has become the norm, we had to make difficult decisions on the applications of some accomplished students. I am sure some of you will be encouraging temporarily disappointed kids. </p>
<p>Perhaps the biggest difference this year is that the number of waitlist invitations is considerably smaller than last year. I do not see this as a negative thing at all, but it will make some of the ‘up front’ decisions seem a bit more abrupt. Additionally, our smaller waitlists will better serve those students on them (assuming we go to the waitlists this year).</p>
<p>Notice that I refer to ‘waitlists’. We will have a waitlist for international students again this year. Additionally, the international students residing outside of the U.S. will receive notice of their admission status via email later next week.</p>
<p>A couple of links which may prove handy to you and your students:</p>

<p>For students who were not offered admission and wish to submit an admission petition based on information we do not already have, see [Guidelines</a> for Special Admission and Appeal | University of Washington](<a href=“http://admit.washington.edu/Admission/Applied/Appeal#freshmen]Guidelines”>http://admit.washington.edu/Admission/Applied/Appeal#freshmen).</p>
<p>Thank you all for your support and work. Have a wonderful weekend…Phil</p>

<p>So, obviously it’s an email, but I didn’t receive it.</p>
<p>Live 30 mins away from UW Seattle and no decision in the mail today. Most likely next week???</p>
<p>@sparklyhearts - That email sounds like it was directed to High School Counselors and not applicants.</p>
<p>Sounds like Monday is the day to start checking our mail boxes. Good luck to all!</p>
<p>so acceptance rate is around 60% this year?</p>
<p>Two acceptance letters for class of 2017 reached Tacoma today!</p>
<p>^cardwriter…I assume that since you posted on this thread that the letters are from UW-Seattle not UW-Tacoma, correct? Makes me excited, and now nervous, to get my daily mail :)</p>
<p>Yes, the letters were from UW-Seattle. Best of luck, all.</p>
<p>Haha, so nervous. I’m in Eastern WA though so if I get a letter it’ll probably be on Monday or later.</p>
<p>I got my acceptance letter just now!! :)</p>
