Freshmen Direct Admissions Major Question?

Hey, so I recently got admitted into UW-Seattle, and I was wondering…so my first major preference was Economics, however, is there any possible way to change my direct freshman direct major admission into Business instead? I heard its possible through talking with a counselor, but I haven’t heard any solid answers. Thank you!

@James312 did you get DA to foster’s already? For Econ? Or just to A&S?

I haven’t heard of people being able to change their majors before arriving on campus. Because Foster does direct admission, I’d talk to an advisor * now * to see if you can still put in a request.

Best of luck!

Wow, I’m in the exact same situation! I’m not sure what to do…

I have no clue if I get direct admissions to foster school of business with economics as my premajor or do you need to have your premajor set to business. Does anyone know??

If your college says Business, I think you got into Direct Admit. If your college says arts and sciences, you have not been admitted via DA yet.

I already submitted my application to the University of Washington but didn’t know I could be considered for direct admission to the Foster School of Business. Can I still be considered?
Yes, you can, but only on a space available basis. And, you likely will not hear if admitted until after May 1, as we have to wait to see how many of the students we offered admission to Freshman Direct actually commit to the University of Washington. If you would still like to be considered, please email bizinfo@uw.edu with your name and student number
