<p>UDub baby what what!</p>

<p>Wow UW is sure getting some qualified applicants this fall, by the looks of this (albeit brief and totally unrepresentative) list we have here.</p>

<p>I'm too@ OOS</p>

<p>Can I ask a question? What is so appealing about UW for OOS students? I mean, some of my reasons for wanting to go have to do with being in-state. I would really be interested in OOS points of view.</p>

<p>UW kicks ass. plus, i'm oregonian. for us oregonians UW is the state school we wish we had (well, at least the kids with good grades).</p>

<p>My son's #1 and only school is UW
In state
3.98 GPA uw (Does the UW look at weighted GPA?)
2320 SAT
NMSF
Schedule is all AP
Took 4 AP Jr. year and scored three 5's and one 4</p>

<p>they only look at unweighted gpa....</p>

<p>whirly: that's a great question, one that, as a CA resident, I get asked all the time. UW, academically, is one of the best in the country. It is one of the greatest research schools in the nation, and is among the top 5 in federal research $ granted to the university. So, for a sci. major, it's awesome. It has established professors in every field, a beautiful campus, all the caffeine one could want, a huge athletic tradition, and the list goes on. That's why I'm considering it anyway.</p>

<p>i raised my hand. I'll probably have my app sent in less than a week.</p>

<p>3.4ish GPA
2100+ SAT
OOS
Good Essay</p>

<p>how much would you say my chances increase because of my In State status? is it a big deal.. i mean i hope it is..... and if it matters half of the graduating class at my high school (150/300) went to UW last year and 40% the year before lol.</p>

<p>Haha @ vc08. I think you have a point. Maybe I just get skewed about how cool UW is compared to the whole world because I have grown up with "UW this, UW that" my whole life. But it is a great place. I'm excited to apply.</p>

<p>can someone bump my comment above please? </p>

<p>thanks a bunch.!</p>

<p>They have in-state, OOS quotas, I believe they accept somewhere around 30% OOS and 65% in-state, but those are just estimates based on frosh class profiles.</p>

<p>Do you mean that 30% of students there are OOS. Because it isnt that there acceptance rates are 30% oos, right?
Cause I always get the impression that it is a not so difficult school to get into for OOS top publics.</p>

<p>I am!</p>

<p>3.86 GPA
28 ACT (retaking next week)
OOS</p>

<p>Big: It is definitely more selective OOS because of the IS-OOS quotas. Compared to Cal, Michigan, UCLA, and Virginia, getting in OOS is easier. But the admissions requirements OOS at UW are definitely tougher than for IS students.</p>
