<p>Hey guys… I’ve always though UDub would be sick, but I ended up taking it off my list… now I’m thinking about it again. So I just have some basic questions:
Honors:
Is honors really worth it? For example, I live in FL, and at UF, you get the best dorm and get to take some “special” (but somewhat useless) classes for 2 years, then you’re thrown in with the rest… I wouldn’t call that worth much. How is it at UDub?
Essays:
True or false: If you don’t apply honors, there are no essays in the application.
Applying late:
Would it be significantly harder to get in if I applied in late December? I don’t think Dub is a reach for me (4.0 UW GPA, 2190 SAT), but I’m reading about this December priority deadline…? Should this worry me at all? </p>
<p>Thanks! And grats to everyone who’s gotten in! I’m sure you’ll have an awesome 4 years!</p>
<p>I don’t know much about UW honors, what I do know is that the deadline already passed for the applications (12/1). Also, there still is an essay for the normal app.</p>
<p>Oh. Well then that makes it easier if I don’t even have to consider it
Igi, I don’t know what that’s supposed to mean… UW is not a reach for me if that’s what you’re implying there. Not a guarantee. But not a reach.</p>
<p>Oh… well if that’s the case, then thanks, and sorry.
But if you really wanna see “DAYYYYYUUUM” go check out an Ivy League forum… it’s just miserable.</p>
