Application season is coming to a close (four more days!). Please feel free to post questions for other applicants in this thread, and if you are willing, please let us know the results of your application in the coming months!
Good luck to everyone, and go dawgs!
Just submitted my App! Good luck to everyone
Is there a website similar to other schools for checking application status? How long does it take to hear back from UW. I submitted about a month ago.
I believe we should hear around March 15th-March 31st @chiz0921 As for checking application status, the only portal I know of is MyUW (you have to make a UW NetID). I am not sure yet if your can check your application status on there yet.
I was talking to one of my friends who currently goes to UW, he told me that he received his acceptance letter in March but they emailed him his decision in February. But some people don’t get this email. It was strange. Maybe they emailed him because they really wanted him lmao!
Good luck to everyone, please pray for me, for my stats aren’t up to par.
In my prayers @prayersforUW
how long after submitting the application, do we get an email about creating a UW Net ID?
@Mnoor17 I submitted my app November 1st and got the email November 8th.
Submitted my app quite some time ago This is probably my second choice after WashU and I hate how agonizing the wait is going to be! Hopefully I get in, I’m Out of State so that makes things a bit more competitive for me. My stats are all pretty strong so I guess it just comes down to the essay and what they think of me, fingers crossed ^^
Can you guys post your stats? I’m so nervous about it.
GPA: 3.68
ACT: 27

I hate everyone on this website who says “I’m not getting in, I’m so nervous.” THINK HOW I FEEL THESE ARE MY STATS: GPA: 3.56, SAT: 1080, ACT: 21. NO AP CLASSES AND ONLY 3 HONORS CLASSES, THE ONLY GOOD THINGS ABOUT ME ARE MY EC’S AND ESSAYS. HAVE HOPE MY GOD SMH. I HAVE HOPE, I HAVE A FEELING I HAVE A 50/50 CHANCE BECAUSE MY ESSAYS AND EC’S OUTWEIGH MY TEST SCORES AND GPA.

Really good EC and community service. Also I am biased and think my essays are pretty heckin good. I’m really hoping to get direct admit. Good luck you guys!
I think you all have a chance. It is really up to how well you portrayed yourself in your essays. Also know that even if we are not accepted, it does not mean we are not capable of performing well in college. There are always other opportunities to take up. Just something to consider. Life is way more than what college you end up going to. There is also always the “community college then transfer to a university” option. Never give up!
