<p>Are priority scholarship/honors applicants notified of the admission decision by the same date as all other applicants?</p>
<p>The UW admits people at various times. Applying early probably means that your app will be reviewed earlier, and thus a decision will probably be sent out earlier, but if they think that you are borderline, they will likely wait until February or march( when most decisions are sent out) to inform you. I got in already, but likely only because I have a high GPA and SAT ( 3.97 with AP/honors and 2060 SAT), and I sent my app out incredibly early( end of October)</p>
