<p>Hello everyone,</p>
<p>I am currently attending Olympic College in Bremerton where I am working towards an Associate of Science in accordance with UW's undergraduate EE program requirements (AS, track 2, option 3). I will graduate next August with this degree, totaling roughly 90 credits. My cumulative GPA is 3.75 for my entire college history, and 3.61 for my cumulative degree GPA. I received my grade report for Fall 2012 in which I earned a 4.0 in all three of my classes. </p>
<p>My overall goal, of course, is to transfer to the UW to earn a BS in Electrical Engineering with a minor in Mathematics. Here is the list of courses I will have taken to earn my AS from OC:</p>
<p>MATH 151, 152, 163, 221, 222, 250, 264
PHYS 254, 255, 256
CHEM 141/151
ENGL 101, 235
ECON 202
CS 141
ORM 225
ENGR 204</p>
<p>I already have an Associate of Technical Arts in Electronics with which I graduated from Olympic College last June with a 3.94 cumulative degree GPA. Now that I am focusing solely on my AS, I am confident that my GPA will only improve.</p>
<p>I applied last year to the UW for general admission, but was denied. I presume this is because I was not on track to finish my AS and had not completed the requirements for the department of EE.</p>
<p>Currently, I am in the process of writing my personal statement. I had hoped to speak with an EE advisor before completing the application, but I am told that they prefer I attend an informational session.</p>
<p>I am 21 years old and I have coached youth lacrosse for the past four years.</p>
<p>So the question begs... what are my chances of getting into UW?</p>
<p>Thanks so much for your time in reading this.</p>
<p>Brandon</p>
