OOS acceptees and rejectees.

<p>I'm a junior in hs, and would like to know what gpas, sat scores, classes, ecs, jobs, community service, and kinds of essays you have. OOs only, please.</p>

<p>I got in, but I thinking its much easier for OOS to get in as long as you have UC-qualified stats.</p>

<p>Got in with a 3.8, 1940 SAT, track and cross country, lots of community service, and wrote the essays trying to make them as personal as possible and not be generic. Good luck next year!</p>

<p>3.9 GPA, 29 ACT composite, no sports, not really any community service, and essays were pretty good. I only remember one, in which I described how my minority culture affected me. I talked about how much of my spiritual Filipino culture never affected me, but the sense of family is imbued within all of my family.</p>

<p>3.77 GPA, 29 composite ACT, 11/12 ACT writing, lots of leadership & community service…
My essays were VERY personal. English is my strength so I slaved over them… I think it’s a major plus…</p>

<p>@Kevin, actually … it’s MUCH harder to get into UW as an OOS. I read on a UW daily article earlier in March that roughly 1/100 OOS applications are actually accepted, versus about half of 100 in state…</p>

<p>slideaway, that doesn’t make much sense. maybe you mean how many actually attend?</p>

<p>@slideaway, if that was true, then UW would have the smallest acceptance rates of all time for OOS. I got in with a 3.33 GPA, so its much varied than others.</p>

<p>also, i was talking to my friend dad in Seattle, and he said alot of kids get rejected from not having community service. now, i have some community service, but how much do they really want?</p>

<p>3.75 unweighted, 1700 SAT, 5 AP’s, sport for 2 years, music for 4 years (had leadership roles in it), didn’t write any community service in my app, personal essays</p>

<p>Accepted with 3.8 (weighted 4.1), 2330,8 APs, essays about a club I founded and why I want to study computer science.</p>

<p>IB student, 3.56 unweighted GPA, 2090 SAT, worked hard on my essays and had solid rec’s, was on the swim team for 4 years, earned the Eagle Scout award. Was denied by UNC-CH and UVa in a heartbeat, so I was very happy to get into UW, which seems like an awesome school.</p>
