UW Autumn 2018 Transfer Discussion (University of Washington)

Has everyone received some sort of Financial Aid email?

So, I don’t know if it’s someone from this thread or another, but on Udub subreddit someone posted that they got accepted to UDub General and waiting on Foster.

@linnearrr yes, got decision notification on 4/27 by Milgard, if can’t get in foster I will go to UWT. Are you in the same situation?

@UwSeattle2018 I have not received any financial aid emails.

@jl652 Sort of - I got my decision to UWT at the end of March. Did you make your enrollment deposit/accept the offer?

@moonboots congrats! Do you mind sharing your stats? I’m a psychology major as well so I would be very grafeful if you would share!

@linnearrr We can only accept offer form one campus, so i will wait until Foster decision comes out

I have NOT been accepted or denied yet:( I applied for engineering. Did anyone else apply for engineering?

@moonboots Omg please share your stats! I applied for Sociology, and so far it seems as if it’s just business majors getting in so it’s nice to hear a psych major got in!

Does anyone know when Math/Stats department will be sending them out? I was literally about to SIR but then I saw some people saying they were accepted and now I’m getting anxious

Has anyone messaged admissions and changed their major? I just did and would like to know what they said back to you?

@julietjuju3 I did last week. They responded the next day and changed it in the system as well

@julietjuju3 I changed from Stats to ACMS and they pretty much said it was fine and the next time I looked at my application it was changed however like a month after my major was changed back to stats (not sure why)

Do you guys completely fill the requirements of your majors? because I don’t. I heard psychology requires more language than the 2 years than most of us did in HS? is that true for anyone that is psych majors? I want to change mine from Sociology to Psychology, but I don’t think all my credits will transfer well, or it might for just the basics of the College of Arts and Sciences department.

hey @jl652 … did you get your WSA score back or are you just assuming that is how you performed??

hey guys. new here. I applied from BC with a full DTA-busines completed. Waiting to hear back both from UW general and from UW Foster for fall quarter.

3.86 cumulative GPA, 3.94 pre-app GPA. No WSA score yet.

Good luck everybody!

@julietjuju3 Strange… I haven’t heard of needing more than 2 years of a language as requirement, but I’m sure it helps. I don’t meet ALL the requirements, but that’s because there were some credits I couldn’t fulfill while also trying to fulfill credits for my DTA. I’m just sort on electives and one other thing (I forgot the other haha). I’m short because my CC requires 10 credits in each where as UW requires 15 in the ones I’m missing. I don’t want to take them because I may be over in credits if I do so. I’m a psych major too so hearing that a fellow psych major got accepted is making my nerves worse. I immediately checked my application and transcript after reading that. Mine hasn’t loaded yet and I began crying… This is beyond nerve-wracking… Especially because my stats don’t even begin to compare to others but I have an incredible story.

The College of Arts and Sciences requires a foreign language through the third quarter… not sure what that means if you took a foreign language in high school.

I spoke to an admissions counselor, as I am short a 5 credit writing course for requirements for my major. I was going to take it this summer in hopes that it might help my chances of being accepted, but the counselor said that its just a graduation requirement, and is something I can complete when/if I get to UW - it doesn’t actually effect my chances of being accepted.

Someone reported me on the basis of my name. This is extremely disappointing considering the fact that we are about to go to one of the most diverse universities in the nation. I am upset that I am not able to present myself anyway that I would please, solely based on the three candid characteristics of myself. You can continue to report me but, I will continue to be who am I am regardless of anyone’s opinion.

@golddawgs What are the stats of getting accepted into Psychology? Like average GPA’s? Yeah what @linnearrr said the foreign language through the third quarter. I don’t know what that means either. Are we suppose to have 3 years of a foreign language? I guess we’ll see. I’ve noticed that too @golddawgs that I’m short credits because UW requires 15, but it can be completed after the fact like @linnearrr said. I also read that you can take classes that are required for admission into your major and apply the same quarter.
I’m very anxious too! I’ve been checking non-stop because it could load at any time! Tomorrow is also May 1st, so most school’s require to put a deposit down. My backup school doesn’t require a deposit or to confirm by May 1st. It’s the priority but for CWU they aren’t strict on that date, you can accept after the fact. So I might just wait till the end of the week before I decide. But I have a feeling a huge chunk of notifications will come this week!
