Deferred Computer Science

Weighted GPA: 4.12

Anyone know what the acceptance rate is like for deferred applications? I’m wondering what my chances are of getting in at this point.

Accepted OOS Bioengineering
ACT: 34
Unweighted GPA: 4.313/4.5 --> correlates to a 3.9+/4.0.

@Toothpick8394 don’t let this define u! It’s their loss. Shame on them for not recognizing ur potential sooner

Accepted Actuarial Science
LAS James Scholar
UW GPA: 3.8
ACT: 33
In state

Where do you find scholarship info?

Scholarship info will come with financial aid i believe

I was accepted into the College of Engineering. How do we see if we are eligible for any of the honors programs or scholarships?

I also have 12 APs

the reason they deferred so many people was that not many people applied ea ( who cares about their back up school anyway?) and they can’t make a decision until they have more information about this year’s application pool

My son was accepted! CoE majoring in Mech Eng. 4.0 UW; 2210 SAT, 16 APs (incl. Senior year). Great ECs. OOS.

Wait i think scholarship info only comes for those in business honors. Everyone else gets theirs later

Uw GPA 4.0(ib diploma and ib cs courses)

This has some good information about decision numbers, if you’re interested. I guess the director gave some quotes - http://www.news-gazette.com/news/local/2016-12-16/first-wave-ui-applicants-will-learn-their-fate-4-pm.html
