@Shawnovan1532 No arrogance in acknowledging you are full pay! I brought up cost because students, including 1st gen whose parents don’t have the experience of applying to and paying for college, may not be as aware that UW does not generally give a lot of need based aid to out of state students, other than loans. So if an OOS student is counting on financial aid at UW, they may be disappointed.
Expanding diversity is a priority for UW. How much it will count, no one here can predict. I do encourage you to build out your list of safeties and matches.
