Prospective University of Washington, Winter 2016 transfers?

@JP1993 @snailshellz thank you both :slight_smile: lets hope UW thinks the same… I still haven’t received anything and I don’t know if I can wait a few more weeks before going crazy :(( but no I don’t have a back up school… I honestly got a little too confident when applying :-S and here I am a few months later totally freaking out!!! But if UW doesn’t work out then I was planning on applying to Seattle U for Spring quarter.

@wintransfer2016 Hey. I still didn’t receive anything from UW yet and when I contacted them this week, they told me they’re still reviewing applications till the 31st… so don’t lose hope! :slight_smile:

@dawgcho93 the 31st of November right?? I called the admissions office too and they said I might not hear anything until the middle of December, which seems so long from now because I expected to have heard back before Thanksgiving, but it seems like they’re kind of just saying whatever to anyone who calls… everyone on this forum seems to have heard something different and its really frustrating :frowning: but thank you for your encouragement! I wish you the best of luck!!!

No. 31st of December. they told me that their notification period for Winter 2016 is November through December 31st. They said they are still sending out admission decision. I guess there’s one more batch getting sent out pretty soon.
Best of luck to you too!

@dawgcho93 @wintransfer2016 Omg they are crazy if they expect people to say yes on the 31 st :-S

Im hoping we all hear back soon since its friday… I keep refreshing :frowning:

@dawgcho93 That doesn’t make any sense when the quarter starts beginning of Jan. There’s no way they could decided on the 31st (a thursday and friday a holiday) and get a letter to someone in time. I think they just meant to say the notification period on the website is Nov-Dec and they were just reiterating this in different words to calm you.

@jadey138 American Ethnic Studies. You? Honestly, I hardly check it anymore. I’ve eliminated as many stressors in this process as possible. Transcript trick will drive you nuts because you have the ability to check too often. I’m simply checking the mail after I know it has came, therefore I can only do that once a day. Way less stressful.

@wintransfer2016 I so agree!! I was way too confident haha and I think they’re for sure just telling people stuff to calm them down on the phone so that way they don’t get too many calls a day of people freaking out.

@dawgcho93 omg I really hope no one has to wait until the 31st… the quarter starts so soon lol!

@JP1993 I can’t refresh my transcript since I already have one so… I have nothing to go on except my mailbox! But sometimes I check the portal to see if I get the congratulations message haha. Nothing so far though :frowning:

@dubsup I feel like the admissions team should at least agree on what to say to each type of question instead of scattering so many different answers haha. Maybe they should come up with a cheat sheet lol!

Is anyone else getting “Content not available at this time” on My UW? Also when I click unofficial transcript it says “Personal Services - Not Available”. Well at least it’s a change from the error page lol

@moonboots omg yes I can’t see anything
Like it says content unavailable
Then when I click finaicai l aid it says unavailable.

I scared its a rejection :frowning:

@moonboots @JP1993 it says the same thing on mine! My transcript says the same thing even though I actually have a UW transcript??

@wintransfer2016 ah maybe they’re updating the system :o?

Yeah I have this message on myUW: “Due to system maintenance, your class schedule is temporarily unavailable.” and my transcript is unavailable. It doesn’t mean anything. lol

@megandlr Yeah I had a similar experience at my CC. CC is pretty antisocial, and I’ve heard that UW can be too. If you’re living in the dorms you’ll probably make friends that way, as long as you put yourself out there!

I think all of us who have been admitted are nervous about starting at UW in some way… personally I’m worried about the difficulty of the classes, but not so much the social aspect. It’s pretty terrifying to be starting at a new school, especially a big, intimidating one like the UW

@snailshellz thank the lord I almost had a panic attack :((

I’m afriad of starting a new school too!
It’s kinda difficult for me to make friends lol.
However I haven’t get anything from UW yet except for the unavailable message on my transcript yesterday(now bak to 500 error)

lol I will rent a shared room now anyway. I’m thinking that
I will try to find some work if I won’t get in.
It’s very great to discuss with you guys that makes me not that anxious. QAQ

Out of curiosity, How long did it take your guys Med+Pass profiles to update, so that you could register for orientation? I’m still waiting on mine…

@carsondaly 2 days for me!

2 days? wow that’s fast! well, hopefully mine loads soon then. Thanks!

Thanks for the advice! Already finished my first essay and am working on my second one right now. My GPA is at a 3.2 hopefully will go up after this week (finals :/) and I have gotten really positive feedback from writing tutors at my school. Hopefully my extracurricular like Student Government, job shadowing and involvement in clubs and activities on campus can help me!

Anyone hear anything yet?

@wintransfer2016 sadly no… have you tried calling today :confused: ?
