<p>Has anyone been admitted yet and if so when did you submit your application and when did you hear back from the UW?</p>
<p>Wow, so no one has heard yet? On Wednesday they changed my status from awaiting a preliminary review to decision pending...but still no word on acceptance.</p>
<p>When did you apply live? My app was entered into their system on November 15th and my status hasn't changed yet...but that was significantly before their priority deadline and before most people submitted their app. Most people coming out of my high school have traditionally heard before Christmas. Do you think I might?</p>
<p>most people definitely won't hear before christmas</p>
<p>only the shoe ins</p>
<p>chloecat16,</p>
<p>November 17 is when it says my application was entered into the database.</p>
<p>live, are you an honors applicant? If you don't mind sharing....what are your stats?</p>
<p>hey....live...one more thing...if your an honors applicant, then when did you submit that application?</p>
<p>Yes, an honors applicant...
SAT: 760m, 730cr, 720w
GPA: 3.6 uw (low, but toughest courseload all 4 years)
SAT II: 800 M2C, 770 US-H, 760 PHY
5 APs taken(three 5s and two 4s), 6 more this year</p>
<p>OOS from Maryland - large public 2000+ students</p>
<p>Decent ECs I guess, pretty decent essay I thought but who knows
Good rec letter from Physics teacher, never read GC rec but its prob. pretty generic</p>
<p>My counselor sent this one in like November 29th...a week or two ago I got an email saying that they had recieved it and it was complete. I applied to Cornell ED so if I get in there I'll be withdrawing my UW app on Thursday...if not UW is one of my top choices RD (and would be very high if I got honors I guess).</p>
<p>Mind if I ask your stats? And I assume you are going for Honors too?</p>
<p>Your stats look great...I was just curious b/c I was trying to figure out when my app might be looked at</p>

<p>My friend just got her acceptence letter on the 22nd or something. She's an athlete though so they tagged her application.</p>
<p>I got my acceptance letter the 27th.</p>
<p>my status just changed to decision pending...</p>
<p>So did mine. Until today, it was "awaiting preliminary review." It changed to decision pending today (December 30.) It was entered in Novemeber 10.</p>
<p>I got in. This is like my least likely school to go to (like my 3rd or 4th backup, lol). I haven't gotten accepted into honors yet. I haven't checked online. </p>

<p>Just got admitted today...checked online...haven't heard from honors yet. How long does it normally take to hear from honors after being admitted to the UW?</p>
<p>PS. stats above</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>yup my sister and i were admitted over the weekend. too lazy for stats right now...</p>
<p>we should hear from honors in about 6-8 weeks</p>
<p>I talked with admissions today and they said the only people being admitted right now are thoes with over a 1400 on the SAT (M + CR) or an unweighted 3.90. Everyone else will get a "comprehensive review" as soon as possible and should hear back in "early april-mid april"</p>
<p>oh thats a long time. sad. well i know im in at least.</p>
<p>well that sucks laura....since i have like a 1380 and like a 3.87</p>
<p>that means i missed the mark on both by just a little</p>
<p>t4885214 </p>
<p>I know! I have a weighted GPA of over a 4.0 but my unweighted is 3.87 and my SATs are just under too! Maybe they will cut us a break :S</p>
