@ gimmel I feel the same way as you do. I don’t know how many of these large classes one is forced to take. If it is more than 2 classes during the 4 year period then it is not that bad. However, if most of first year classes are this way then UW is not worth attending.
Large classes could end up becoming major hurdles towards getting into desired program.

I get the feeling that they really want more students attending UW Bothell/Tacoma and large classes at Seattle campus will force students to move to these campuses.

I am told that if you get into honors program then class sizes rarely exceed 50. That is my best hope.
