Direct Admission to Computer Science Question

So, I was admitted to admission for Fall 2015! :slight_smile: I’m a full time RS student, I’ll have 90 credits, and my AA. I’ve taken all my English, I’ve done Stats, Calculus, and for Science, I’m doing Chem now. One thing I wished I didn’t take was Bio, I regret not having the opportunity to take Physic in replace of Bio. My overall GPA is 3.86, College 3.9. Here’s the thing, in my application I didn’t put Computer Science as my major, is it possible to still apply for direct admit? If not, when would I apply for Computer Science? Thanks for your help!

Unfortunately, you have to list comp sci as your intended major on your application in order to be considered for direct admission. I believe you can apply for the major after two semesters at UW.

You can apply for the major whenever you finish the prerequisites. It doesn’t have to be two quarters.

Thanks I’ll probably apply after a quarter cause I have so much of the prerequisites done

Good luck! Give yourself enough time to write your personal statement; that’s as important as strong grades.

@speedsolver‌ you think I should use my personal essay when I applied to UDUB? Or should I make a new one? Thanks bro

@phillipiscool123 You should be writing a new one. Here’s the info: http://www.cs.washington.edu/prospective_students/undergrad/admissions/personal_statement

@phillipiscool123‌ Congrats on your admission to the UW! Did you apply as a transfer student or freshmen student?
