Congratulations UofW2017!!! I guess we’ll have to wait for the 2nd batch. Some UW students got their acceptance yesterday for fall 2017.
@ohshizlmao9 are you a current UW student or a transfer student? Sorry to hear. You got a high WSA though. In my case, all I ask is to get at least a 3 in my WSA. This really worries me. Good luck to you!
@Anxious19872010 Thank you and I called Foster yesterday and asked if they have released their decision yet or not and mentioned that some people are saying they received their decision and they said that is not possible and we send our decision at the same time. For transfer students its June 1st, so you guys will probably hear back during last week of May. Good Luck, and with your stats I am pretty sure you are going to get in.
I’m a current student at uw. Finishing my junior year this quarter
Is there really an appeal process?
@ohshizlmao9 yes there is. You can always appeal but your point for appealing has to be very strong.
@UofW2017 Could you let me know how that process works? I don’t see anything in the letter or site mentioning appealing. I had 3.7s in all the preapp classes except math I had a 2.0. I’ve had a great upward grade trend. I’ve built two family businesses from the ground up including one following a previous bankruptcy. My WSA is quite high, and I work at UW in web content management part time and also an informatics RA. I was trying to get into the IS concentration.
@ohshizlmao9 sorry I misunderstood, Its only for direct-freshman but not for standard admission. You should talk to the advisors because you are a strong candidate . You have pretty good extra curricular’s too
@UofW2017 Ah, okay. No worries! I left advising an email and voicemail last night, hopefully can go in and talk to them next week. Not really sure what good it will do, I don’t think it will change anything? It’s not like they can flip the decision?
@ohshizlmao9 they can guide you what to do next or you can ask them if you could appeal. I know you could apply to Foster more once.
Hi @Sheeeeeeeeeeeep, congratulations!! Can you share your stat with us?
@linlin2710 I have posted the stats on this thread. I didn’t post mine but I posted average of who applied and who got admitted.
So I guess the decision for the rest of us will come out soon. What I observed from previous threads is that some people get their unofficial transcripts loaded on the Friday after uw student got their decision, and the notification comes out the following week. Just guessing tho.
I’m applying as a transfer student. I’ll have my AA by June in Business.
Pre App: 3.9
Cumulative GPA: 3.95
WSA: Not too confident, took it in March.
I think I have a good chance as long as I didn’t bomb the WSA – what do you guys think?
I’m super anxious and ready to hear a response. I haven’t heard anything yet from UW or Fosters.
My fingers are crossed for all of us transfers and congrats to current students who are in!
We almost have the same stats @bay0333 and I am also not confident with my WSA. Good luck!
I’m an out of state 2 year college transfer, I got a letter admitting me into UW in the mail yesterday with Business Administration listed as my major…but I’m kind of confused since Foster’s application page still says my application is under review. Reading this thread it seems that Foster decisions not come out yet? Does this mean I haven’t actually gotten into the business program? I thought both were supposed to come out at the same time…
@cupcakes88 I’m in a very similar situation. I got notified that I had been accepted to UW yesterday, but have not heard back from fosters. If you wouldn’t mind, could you share the link to the Foster’s application page?
I did notice on my unofficial transcript it lists my school as being “Business School” and my major as being “Business Admin (Finance)”. Does yours say the same?
Good luck !
For those of you who got admitted, congrats! Also, would you mind share your gpa/wsa?
@bay0333
Foster app page:
foster.uw.edu/academics/degree-programs/undergraduate-programs/admissions/standard-admission/
scroll down and under the last thing called “Online Application (Apply Here)” is a blue link called “Apply Here” that takes you to log in and then to the Foster Application webpage.
When I log into that my application says: “In Review: After all applicants have been reviewed you will receive an email from us to @uw.edu. Please log in then to view our decision letter.”
My unofficial transcript also says “Business School” and my major is “Business Admin (Accounting)” and anywhere that lists my major on MyUW it says “Accounting”. Really confusing! I remember at Transfer Thursday the Foster school people specifically mentioned that typically their decisions are ready BEFORE UW’s decision, but that both decisions should come out at the same time. Really nervous about Foster now…

@cupcakes88
Thank you for the link ! Mine says the same thing though
I believe that is a good sign but I’m not sure.
From what I can read on here, typically you’re listed as being a pre-major before you’re accepted into your major. I’m not sure why they would list us as business school students if we weren’t in yet …
Fingers crossed for both of us !!
