@UWwinter2017 the wait is very frustrating. I hope after UW takes their sweet time we all would be getting acceptances by tomorow.
@Aharris1105 I know I didn’t want to apply too but I also don’t want to give up. @Girlygirl256 hopefully tomorrow this all ends. I hope we all get in. I don’t want to be sad this holiday season so may may this holiday season be filled with lots of love and happiness.
@UWwinter2017 Amen to that!
sending out good vibes to everyone ~
Today is another day guys. I’m sorry to hear about the pass rejections, but I’m hoping that this year will be different for everyone!
Good luck this week 
Guys I called the admissions office and the lady was really nice. She said that they started releasing decisions first week of november and will continue to release decisions until mid-december. She said she doesn’t think any decisions will come out this week.
I’m so frustrated. I have to pay tuition soon. why are they dragging this
I’ve just been telling myself that I have been rejected, so if I get in it’ll be a huge and happy surprise, lol. This wait has been too long and stressful for me, so why keep stressing about it.
What! They’re supposed to release decisions soon. I’ll call right now and ask again to be sure.
I honestly don’t think they know what they’re doing. Literally everyone has a different story. I hate this
Ugh I just called the admission and the lady was like we just started sending out some half and we are still trying to release decisions for the next 2 weeks. I was like, “next 2 weeks? Why is the admission team releasing it so late?” Then she said that the departments took their time to finalize decisions and she told me to check back in 10 days if my status online hasnt been updated and if I havent recieved a letter. I am so mad right now, i live in the east coast and i need to move all my things back to Washington and get a plane ticket, which is pretty pricey right now and I have to find housing.
She also told me that she has my letter that is ready to be mailed out and I’m just like thinking, why haven’t they mailed out anything yet?
I honestly, don’t even know what to do or think anymore. I’m literally losing my mind
When I was talking to her she seemed very confused and lost, she was really nice though. I think she understood the frustration we all have of waiting for a decision.
I’m so sorry @Girlygirl256 I find it so annoying that I didn’t even apply to any major or department so why didn’t they release the general admissions decisions all this time. I was just hoping we find out today and I decided to call and now I’m really mad. We don’t have the time to wait 2 weeks for them to tell us if we got in or not when we applied 3 months ago. This is ridiculous.
@UWwinter2017 she said that there was no decision on my file but there was at my first file when I applied 2 years ago in highschool. Yet, she claimed that she has my “letter” lol I dont know, that really didnt make sense to me at all. She told me, “well make sure everyone gets their decisions by first week of December.” I’ll give them like 2-3 days and if I still havent recieved an update at MyUW I will call them again about my application status. This has gone way too far, i even applied to this other school for Winter 2017 and they told me I was accepted since October.
I even asked her, “Well may I know if i’ve been rejected so I wont have to waste my time thinking about it” then she was like, “oh, well i really cant say because there’s no decision” i wanna shoot myself lol
THAT MAKES NO SENSE. what the hell. I tried to ask her about any update on my application and she refused to answer she didn’t say anything about the letter or the application. I’m gonna wait this week and next week I’m gonna pay my tuition. I don’t want to get dropped out of the classes only to find out UW rejected me too.
@UWwinter2017 Right! Are you able to get a refund if you do get admitted to UW? First day of Orientation for Winter admits is on Friday, December 16 yet, we don’t even know where we stand. Not even on the Waitlist. (Not that I know if UW does waitlist or not)
Hey guys, I’ve been following this thread for a while too, and just thought I’d join. After reading what everyone has said, I’m a bit worried now… this may seem like a dumb question, but I wasn’t entirely sure what to do.
On my application, I said that I would apply to the major for the same quarter I applied to transfer (aka obviously Winter 2017). I intend on applying to the Psychology major, and I’m currently in CC in WA state. I have all 3 psych classes done, and am currently taking the one math requirement. After this fall quarter at my CC, I’m going to receive my AA.
So I haven’t actually applied or submitted any application to the Psychology department since they won’t know that I am just going to complete the last pre-req. Was it a mistake to check off that I’m going to apply to the major right away? I just thought they would let me know about general admission before letting me apply to the major…
While I understand that the UW needs to take time with applications, I just wish they were more transparent with the entire process and actually communicated with us applicants rather than keeping us in the dark.
I’m not sure how general admission works, but for major decisions, I know UW students heard back the first week of November and were supposed to hear back before transfer students, then transfer student admissions were supposed to start coming out this week through December 1, so I think that’s why we’ve been hearing mixed responses about decision time. Though if she said mid-december they must be behind which is really frustrating. Sorry you guys. Praying y’all get in and I’ll be seeing you around campus <3
