As an OOS applicant, your stats are probably in the match/high match range for the Honors Program (http://depts.washington.edu/uwhonors/apply/freshman/faq/), and I expect you will be offered a Purple and Gold Scholarship, which could reduce the $45K/year tuition, room and board by up to $8,500/year. The CS, English and Communications (Journalism) departments are excellent.

Congratulations on your great academic record, and good luck with your applications.
