@UWfromCA Thanks for these great links! Very cool, and interesting history as well.
My son received FA Award today from UW - we are in state and not a wealthy family at all. I was shocked at the very low award amount (under 6,000). We understood that WA State passed legislation recently with robust higher ed support and that families earning less than $90,000 would basically receive tuition waivers - not the case at all for our son. He has actually received a few great awards at private institutions, but prefers UW at this point. Can anyone shed light on this.
Engineering Departmental freshman Scholarships Qs
Has anyone gotten offered those yet?
And does anyone know the range of what can be offered?
Also, do they only notify you if you got one?
Sorry I have a lot of questions but the description on their website is so vague lol
hello, does anyone happen to know when the honors department will be releasing their decisions? I won’t die if I don’t find out, but I am pretty curious!! Also I applied to neuroscience as my major, and I think I read that that department actually releases decisions separate from the acceptance letter?? Is that true?? Again, I won’t die lol it’s okay if y’all can’t answer
Oh, and in case anyone was wondering, I received my financial aid info in my emails yesterday!! They’ll send you a link that will direct you to it!!
Hi @melodiousdeck some of the honors decision came out on Thursday. My DD is waiting for Major decision like you. I also see you got into UCLA. Are you considering it as well? MY DD got into UCLA Neuroscience as well.
@WCSeniorsDad I see!! Thank you so much for replying!! And also that’s really exciting, please tell your daughter I said congrats!!! It’ll be super cool if we end up going to the same school!!!
I am considering UCLA at the moment, however it really does come down to financial aid… I was looking at some of the information with my parents earlier, but I probably won’t make a decision until the rest of my schools’ decisions come out. Again, congratulations to your daughter and to your family!! Stay healthy!!
Have any UW CS majors received an email from the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science?
Received an email this morning congratulating me on my acceptance to the honors program.
Sorry I’m a little late LOL
Denied
OOS

@UWadmissionstaff , do you know when all direct major notifications in L&S will come out. Will portal update from pre-sciences to direct major when dept notify students?
@melodiousdeck - Got honors acceptance on Thurs. March 19th. Have yet to hear anything about any merit scholarships (engineering, honors, or NASA) Money would be a big help nowadays yet actual school would be even more welcomed. Best wishes for everybody’s health and sanity!
For those of you that received a Purple and Gold scholarship, can you tell me your stats and what state you are from? My daughter has a 34 ACT, 1550 SAT, 4.7 weighted GPA, and we are from Illinois. She was only given $4200, so I am trying to figure out if her scores were lower, hence the lower amount, or whether people who live closer (and are therefore more likely at accept an offer at UW) were offered more. I really thought she would get closer to $8500, and she was only offered less than half. Thanks for your help!
I just got off the waitlist! Does anyone know if waitlisted applicants are still eligible for merit scholarships?
Congrats! Are you in state or out of state?
@Grace1973 I’m out of state! I didn’t get an email or anything. I just checked my portal and it said congratulations!!! Applied for Business.
Just got pulled off the waitlist! I am very happy! Southern California.
@jkliewer Thanks for the info. I guess nothing happened to IS yet…
S is off the waitlist today! Good luck to everyone on the waitlist!
