Received acceptance letter with DA to engineering and purple & gold award for $33,600 total 4 yrs
UW should consider increasing this amount to lower out of state tuition and make it comparable to in-state cost
Received letter and purple and gold scholarship for $8,400/yr… no direct admit to CS though! Guess that goes to show how tough it is for OOS
D got $12,000 for 4 years (3k/year). Direct College of Engineering
Did you receive the letter today?
Waitlisted for Biochem
OOS (CA), 3.9 W GPA, 1480 SAT, IB Diploma candidate, 750 on SAT US History and Bio. Full IB schedule senior year, already got 4 on Econ and 5 in Math II, chances of being admitted?
Does anyone have any insight on financial aid at UW?
As an OOS student, let’s say your EFC is $25,000 and you have top stats and receive the maximum $8400/yr P&G scholarship bringing COA to the high $40s. Will the rest of your financial aid award to meet need consist of loans? Or do they give additional grants?
@cbemvista Was your student’s scholarship an in-state merit-only (no financial aid qualification) engineering scholarship, or was it for OOS or partial financial need or special diversity/niche scholarship? Secondly, did you get the money offer in the congratulations letter or did it arrive separately?
how do I check to see if I got the P&G scholarship/any other aid?
I just got my package in the mail. OOS, pretty far away from Washington. I got selected for P&G and they offered 4.2k per year. I’m thankful but still is not enough since oos cost of attendance is ~53k. I’m guessing the only way to find out is by getting the package because when I check my financial aid status, there’s nothing listed and there’s no mention of p&g.
Just received ours --$7200/yr Purple&Gold Scholarship, pre-science (Biology).
accepted!

Just got my acceptance package as well… no scholarship sadly, which means UW is already crossed off my list for potential options due to OOS costs. Here’s to whoever gets in off the waitlist from me!
OOS, Daughter got admitted, 7k scholarship. Sadly no direct admission to Computer Science so UW is off our list (pre-science).

My son is accepted and received scholarship in pre-science major
I am reading posts on direct admits and capacity constrained majors,
He wants to pursue biology and pursue pre-med.
Is biology a capacity constrained major?
Received last saturday in mail
Yes, see their list of majors:
