I was admitted ED this year, for me, I think my interview helped a lot. I was really able to connect with my interviewer and he was able to see some things that I really didn’t get to talk about on the application enough. I did indeed visit the campus and took a tour as well as attended the engineering seminar (My planned major).

Really, it’s about showing a passion/drive IMO, and that’s what got me in.

iirc ED acceptance rate is like 5% more than RD, so take that for what you will.

In terms of your stats, I’d try to raise that UW GPA, and a 33+ ACT would probably recommended. I was able to get the score I wanted the summer after Junior year.
