Fall 2017 Transfer Thread

I called a few hours ago today and they said I’m still under review and should find out by the end of the month, hopefully. (I am a summer transfer btw)

Hey everyone!!! I posted my stats above a few months ago. I checked my unofficial transcript at 6:22 and it was upload at 6:13!!! I am waiting anxiously for a welcome packet in the mail. Hopefully this means I was admitted into UW Seattle! Yay!

@silverlinings88 Congrats!! are you a summer or fall applicant??

Hey guys, just wondering. Did you all send in your spring semester (final) transcript? Is it required? Thanks!

I did not, I did not send in my winter either, as they did not request it. If they want it, they will ask for it I believe.

I emailed admissions and they said that no one has been accepted yet. I’m just talking about people who applied as transfers for fall 2017.

This is what the email said:
Thank you for contacting UW Admissions!

Transfer applicants for Autumn Quarter of 2017 can expect to hear back from June through the end of July, which you can see here. Please note that we cannot send out admissions decisions earlier than the scheduled notification period.

All notifications are sent out in waves at random due to the high volume of applicants. US applicants with a foreign mailing address and International applicants will be receiving a letter in the mail along with an email notifying them of their admissions decision.

Interesting!! Thanks for letting us know @christine367

How come I already got accepted ai UWS in late Aprile and UWB in early May.

So strange how they answer you @christine367

I applied as a summer transfer applicant from outstate and got my major (biochemistry) acceptance. However, I have not heard anything from the UWS general admission office yet. I do not know what is gonna happen next…and summer term is starting soon…

For those who are interested. Back on March 15th I applied to UWB directly into IA&S (Law, Economics & Public Policy). Today (May 23rd 2017), my status changed on MyUW to “Your application to the UW Bothell has been reviewed. All applicants are informed of admission decisions by email or mail when results of the review process become available.” When I checked the Application Status page it said, “Status Update: An update to your application was last posted May 23, 2017.” Right under that there was a blue link that said “View Update”. When I clicked on the link I was redirected to a letter with my application decision. The first part of the letter states, “Congratulations! I am very pleased to offer you admission to the School of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences (IAS) at the University of Washington Bothell for Autumn 2017.” I hope this helps!!

My stats:
Cum GPA 3.62
96 Quarter credits between military and 3 different CCs

Random but… Has anyone attended a transfer thursday? Was it helpful?

well this was just referring to people who applied as a general applicant not to major.

@lph207

@christine367 :). I got accepted for the general admission, I have not yet applied to my major. :smiley:

@annaythepotato: Hey, definitely super helpful. They would let you know what they are looking for in the personal statement. :slight_smile:

Did any of you guys apply to UWB for a backup?? I didn’t but I see the application is open until June 1st… I’m like 85% confident I’ll get into UW seattle with my gpa (3.76), in-state transfer with an AA and being prepared for my (open) major, but I’m almost contemplating if I should apply to UWB just in case. Ultimately, waiting until winter quarter wouldn’t be that big of deal. I don’t know if I want to spend the additional application money, I may just wait and apply for winter if I don’t get into UW Seattle.

I got in!! Summer transfer here at Seattle. Found our at 5:30 pm :smiley:

Congrats!!!

What are your stats if you don’t mind sharing?

@Mid20transfer Yes!! Do you mind sharing your stats and your major ?
