Does anyone know whether Honor Program of University of Washington(UW)
allows freshmen to choose their major without any further application through
Standard Admission?
My child was admitted to UW Honor Program, but there was no specific major
assigned on his acceptance letter of UW General Admission.
Any response is highly welcome!
Does anyone know whether UW Honor Program allows freshmen to choose their choose their major freely?
There will always be a major listed somewhere on MyUW; look closer. Look for “Pre-Sciences” or something.
The honors program might look good on an application to a major, but it does not guarantee anything. I have a friend who is in the honors program but has still gotten repeatedly rejected from certain majors.
The UW Honors program doesn’t control admission to majors. You have to get into your major following the regular department processes. If you’re not sure if your child’s major is open or competitive, look here for general information https://www.washington.edu/uaa/advising/degree-overview/majors/list-of-undergraduate-majors/ or check out the individual department websites.
