It depends. Are you first generation? What kind of AP/honor/running start/IB classes have you taken? Which high school did you go to?

Good thing you are in-state (about 80% of students they admit are in-state).

Your SAT scores are a little bit low. If you would give the scores for the Reading and Math sections individually we can get a clearer picture. The UW-Seattle average Reading score is 530 while the Math score is around 620. Also your GPA is slightly above average for UW (average at UW is 3.72).

Your activities are good. It looks like you enjoy doing them and, for the most part, you are doing them for a prolonged period of time.

Also I hope you didn’t slack on the writing section. UW lists them as “very important”.

It was a good idea to apply early.
