UW asks you to input all classes you took 9-12, and input known grades. That calculates the GPA out of 4.0 using letter equivalency scales.
Never heard of that… most don’t come for summer quarter. Just apply autumn.
UW doesn’t have much to give. You end up as a better applicant since youre OOS, but they only accept OOS if you’re paying full. Most financial aid is for WA kids.
Like I said above, being out-of-state makes you more likely, and you have good class standings and an ok SAT. Your grades and course rigor might not be as competitive, but you came from a smaller HS. I’d say you have a good chance, but a little less competitive in academics. Try throwing in work and ECs.
