Anyone into UW Honors yet?

<p>I got mine today!
I wish all of you luck!</p>

<p>I’m still waiting on mine :(.</p>

<p>Sent in app: November 22nd.
Accepted into UW: December 17th.</p>

<p>Come on honors! Surely 1870 is such a horrrrible SAT score was it?</p>

<p>@Shark06, if you don’t mind, could you share your SAT score/GPA with us? :)</p>

<p>Hey, I was just wondering if it is still possible to apply to the Honors Program although I already got into UW? </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>No, you can’t apply now. You should have applied to Honors when you applied to the school itself.</p>

<p>vzhao: you can do late admissions for UW Honors. Check one of the recent board topics for the link :)</p>

<p>Did you guys enjoy the chat today? I thought Honors_folks were very helpful.</p>

<p>^^ I couldn’t make it because I was on a field trip all day. Was there anything you found particularly helpful?</p>

<p>SophieGerman, lot of different topics were covered and it was not easy to track all conversations taking place simultaneously. But UW students sounded enthusiastic about the curriculum. I got some useful feedback MATH 124/125/126 sequence vs. MATH 134/135/136 etc. It was also fun watching what admitted people were asking.</p>

<p>guys, what chat are you talking about? o.O</p>

<p>For those who has been accepted already, </p>

<p>I was accepted to UW on Feburary 1st. I still haven’t got my Honors letter. Should I call in? I’m so anxious. I’ve been waiting for the mailman for 2 weeks now… What should I do? Is calling in a good idea?</p>

<p>gl92, calling is not a bad idea. I know how you feel.</p>

<p>The letter came today from honors. I got denied and I’m really sad. I don’t know if I’ll be able to attend UW because my parents feel that OOS tuition is too much, but would have agreed to it if I was in the honors program. I do understand their feelings and they feel bad too. I still love UW, but it is alot of money for OOS. I’m sad…</p>

<p>All I can do is wait for the UC decisions. However, the UC’s are going through some pretty ugly times and I don’t want to be subjected to it.</p>

<p>I did get into WWU Honors Program. I’ll be visiting early April. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.</p>

<p>gimmel, sorry to hear that you were denied admission to honors college. it is not that exclusive - from what I can tell at most 1/4th of the the courses are exclusive. you can still do departmental honors and avoid larger classes. good luck.</p>

<p>^^Maxxwell, you’re very sweet to say that. I’ll look into departmental honors. Thank you.</p>

<p>gimmel, </p>

<p>This girl at my school was accepted to UCLA and Western’s Honors Program. She chose WWU Honors. She’s loving it. </p>

<p>I’m sorry about UW Honors. I’m still waiting for my letter :(</p>

<p>lol i got my letter yesterday and got rejected. basic stats were ~3.9 gpa, 2330 sat, above average recs…
i’m not too bummed out though, since i’m roughly 100% sure i won’t be attending UW. good luck to other students!</p>

<p>Neon_Green, that was surprising. Looks like essays play a big role in honors admission.</p>

<p>It is must have been hard for you to get motivated to write essays for UW honors admission when you were already admitted to UM Honors. </p>

<p>Similar thing happened to couple of people in our school who didn’t spend enough time on their honors essays.</p>

<p>Anyway, wish you all the best!</p>

<p>thanks maxxwell! it pains me to say this, as i grew up a husky, but as of right now, i’m leaning toward usc and the $80k they’re throwing at me. don’t worry, i’ll always have a soft part for sark, but trojan football is where it’s at! :P</p>

<p>for the record, uw was the very first app i filled out all the way back in september, so i put some effort into their essays. but w/e, i’m sure they had some reason.</p>
