<p>congrats to JustAccepted.... that's awesome.
are you playing football for the UW?</p>
<p>im thinking about walking on</p>
<p>@JustAccepted, I go to BHS too, and I have a good guess as to who you might be :D</p>
<p>JustAccepted, when did you apply?</p>
<p>i applied before the priority date....about november 30th</p>
<p>You guys are going to think I am crazy, but for browsing this forum for several months I had no idea that there was a UW forum (I hadn't even seen the Alphabetical List of Colleges haha :s). However, here I am, and part of the UW Class of 2010.</p>
<p>I got my letter the 22nd of December roughly, and found out via unofficial transcript before that.</p>
<p>Stats:
-3.94 GPA
-760 critical reading/640 writing/560 math
-Instate from a very small town
-Excited to be part of the UW Class of '10!</p>
<p>Congrats to all who have gotten in so far and good luck to all those still waiting :)</p>
<p>i know stephen... hahahaha
small world heh.</p>
<p>I wonder how long your app status becomes "full review process" you get to know you're in or not?</p>
<p>sigh.</p>
<p>Mines been since jan 24th!</p>
<p>It's awesome to hear some people got in with not-so-amazing stats. My GPA is only a 3.35, but with AP and honors weight it's a 4.4 in Florida. Do any of you guys know if UW is harder on out of state applicants or not? I imagine they would be. My SATs are 1360 old, 2080 new. I really have very little going for me other than an extremely heavy courseload... mediocre grades though. I don't really know what to expect but I consider UW a moderate reach. Any insight?</p>
<p>answering out-of-state questions are tricky.</p>
<p>if memory serves me right, around 90% of UW's undergraduate population is from in-state. (if not 90%, some really high percentage) seeing this, i think it would be in UW's advantage to admit as many out of state applicants as possible - they are all about diversity, after all.</p>
<p>so i can't imagine UW's out of state admission to be THAT much more difficult. however, out of state applicants probably get reviewed only after all the in-state applicants are accepted. UW is, after all, a state school.</p>
<p>This is just my intuition, but you should contact an adcom about this.</p>
<p>well.... the actual in-state percentage is 83%, so yes it's pretty high. However, I don't think that oos students get reviewed later, seven or eight posters on this forum have gotten in out of state, while there are many in-state applicants still waiting. So best of luck to amandatraci, I hope you get in!!!!</p>
<p>though they get more $$$ from the oos students...they accept more in-state applicants because they are more open to them as in less picky on acceptance</p>
<p>I applied to UW with the earlier date (so they can process the honors college app faster), anyways I just hear and I got accepted with a 1530 on the old SAT, and I can't really remember what I got on the new SAT, my GPA is somewhere around a 3.5 unweighted and a 4.3 or higher weighted. Hope this helps</p>
<p>a bunch of my friends got accepted today... all lower stats than me.</p>
<p>so around 3.2 and 1700-1800 on the SATs.</p>
<p>of course they attend a major UW feeder school, but still.</p>
<p>im jealous. should've applied by the priority date!!</p>

<p>my friend who applied on jan. 15th got accepted yesterday!! BEFORE me.. wah what??????????????????????</p>
<p>nhs041088-
yeah, it's pretty much all random...they don't read the apps in order. except they separate the ones submitted before the priority deadline from the ones after. i guess then that they've finished with all of the priority apps.</p>
