Official Fall 2014 Decisions Thread

<p>how do i not have a uw id? i tried to log in to it to check if i had the transcript thing but i guess i never made one? </p>

<p>You should have gotten some email a couple months back @puckerface …</p>

<p>Haha man I’d say I’m more into UW right now. But that’s just cuz of the whole urban edge to it. Seattle is a great place and I know a couple of people there. UW us increasing in it’s rankings. Top school for Medicine, Foster is ranked 25th nationally and what not. But then UCSD is also killer. UW would cost significantly lesser than UCSD…so it’s a hard choice @breezing </p>

<p>@breezing Well it’s in a beautiful location. Bellingham is a really pretty town. Also they tend to thought as the 2nd or 3rd best public university in the state. It’s smaller which I liked. The other reason is I am hoping to go onto medical school and had heard it was better to go to another school for undergrad if I wanted to attend UW for medical school. I am still obviously unsure of where I’ll go. lol.</p>

<p>@Rusty34: I’m not very familiar with the prereq classes for Foster (and how well people do in them), but pretty much everyone I know who wanted to study at Foster were accepted. I can’t speak in more detail about Foster admissions, though. Sorry!</p>

<p>@speedsolver you’ve shed plenty of light on the subject , thank you so much! Are you a current uw student? Or an alumni?</p>

<p>I’ve heard from various people that foster has a ~60 % acceptance rate…so just do well in the pre-reqs (accounting, business law, micro/macro econ) and maintain a 3.3+gpa and you should be good. There is also a test for business school i believe…</p>

<p>Really?@NinRash . Hope I get a direct admit.</p>

<p>@Rusty34 I’m a current student! I’ll be graduating this year. I frequented CC a <em>ton</em> in high school (different username) and I check in now and then. =) </p>

<p>ahh I’ve never been to Bellingham, but I will be passing by later this spring so hopefully I can get a look at WWU (:</p>

<p>@Rusy34 personally I LOVE the gothic architecture and the vibe of UW, I feel like this school is going places haha. Being an in state student, and living fairly close to UW, I’ve experienced too much gloomy weather for my taste and that’s why I’m also thinking about UCSD/UCLA. </p>

<p>Haha since you’re an ex student , does this whole unofficial transcript talk seem legit to you?</p>

<p><em>Still</em> a student! =P </p>

<p>Yep, legit. I don’t know anyone who got waitlisted or rejected who had a unofficial transcript load. Mine loaded at about 2am and I got my (small) letter 3 days later. I’m from the greater Seattle area.</p>

<p>Haha oh I’m sorry “still” @speedsolver. Thanks for the insight man. Really appreciate it. Whats your major?</p>

<p>Lol im going to go to sleep, and check for this and UCSD tomorrow.
@Paolaa, funny thing actually. Im from NJ :P</p>

<p>I’m a computer science major. </p>

<p>@breezing yeah I get it man. But I don’t mind 4 years of bad weather if that gets me 40 years of a good life!!</p>

<p>@Rusty34
hahaha very true! </p>

<p>–</p>

<p>man i hope the transcript thing updates at midnight…im watching supernatural to pass the time…</p>

<p>@speedsolver… 2am on march 15th??</p>

<p>@NinRash, uhh, 2am in mid December, because I’m old and UW used to do rolling admissions. =) </p>

<p>ahhh okay</p>
