When is the last day to appeal
Unfortunately the letter arrived today and my appeal was denied. Looks like I’m going to have to commit somewhere else and just hope that I make it off the wait list. Does anybody know if May 15th is the earliest we will here from the wait list, or could it possibly be earlier? 2 weeks seems like a LONG time to wait!
So as I understand, we get an email if our appeal is accepted and a letter if it’s rejected? I’m still waiting to hear back >.<
so I called the admissions office and the representative said they sent me a letter yesterday. That probably means I got denied right?
@flutistks - not necessarily - if you read the thread, some people got letters saying their appeal was approved. There is still hope for you!
Hey! I sent in my appeal a while ago… I got a confirmation email on the 18th that my petition was received…How long until I hear? I heard they’ve been moving pretty fast through appeals. I’m super stressed and want to know if anyone thinks Ill hear in the next 3 days maybe (by the 28th) so that I maybe don’t have to commit anywhere else on May 1st? I’m super stressed out and know that if I"m accepted, I will go… I keep checking the portal religiously… Should I call the admissions office? They just tell you if a letter is mailed right?
After you submit your appeal do you get an email or a letter? I submitted mine about a week ago and I haven’t received any notice that it has been received
@emmalorrissa I heard back eleven days after I submitted my appeal, so there’s a high chance you’ll find out before May 1st! I’d recommend calling the office a couple days before then if it’s still stressing you out a lot. Good luck!
@seawa99 You will receive an email confirming that they got it!
I just realized I never updated people here about my appeal, it was accepted! I’m willing to answer any questions anyone has about the process, a lot of people here helped me when I was waitlisted and with the appeal process. It’s the least I could do.
I still haven’t gotten an email about it being received but it did show on the screen that it was received after i clicked submit
@uw2021pls how long did it take for you to find out?? Congrats btw!
@seawa99 update: I just received the confirmation email so now I am waiting to hear back
Did your appeal have to do with information not mentioned on the application or about interest in attending the school? also how long did it take to get a response once you got the email saying ‘your petition has been received’ ? last question, did you get your approval by letter or email??

@jmdub11 I personally tried to add as much new information as possible. I also researched some clubs at UW that I want to get involved in and got in contact with UW students and wrote about the advice I was given. I did focus a lot on my major (social work) because their programme is excellent, and there aren’t many in-state schools that have it. I received an email verifying that they got my petition 3 days after I submitted it, and I received my acceptance 11 days after i got the email. The acceptance was sent via email. Good luck!
@noidentityseen Thanks, this makes me feel like I have a shot. I wrote about the major I’m interested in and what specific path I would need to take at UW to go for it. I also explained huge events in my life that held me back from a positive grade trend in high school. I got an email on 4/28 saying my petition was received so now im just waiting. Hoping for the same success as you, Congrats!
@noidentityseen Not sure if this is coincidental or means anything, but i also got the email exactly 3 days after I sent it in. Hopefully thats a good sign and I’ll hear back this saturday, 11 days after.
@jmdub11 best of luck to you!!! I hope it goes well keep us updated!
Update: my appeal was rejected
