<p>This is great, thank you. And if you wouldn’t mind a few more questions/responses, heh :)</p>
<p>1) I applied as a freshman applicant 2 years ago, and was accepted with their Trustee Scholarship of $15,000 a year- will my application and this info still be under file?</p>
<p>2) Do you know what students generally do after they graduate- graduate school, or directly go into the workforce? Teach for America? And what the 4-year graduate rate is? If you know this particularly for the biology department that would be helpful.</p>
<p>3) Would it still be possible to study abroad even if I transferred fall of junior year? Is study abroad very popular?</p>
<p>4) How is the faculty-student relationship? Is it strictly faculty-student, or is it very casual, and are they helpful and personable? Is it seminar style or completely lecture-based? Do they have many office hours, and do they encourage those or not?</p>
<p>5) What is the housing situation like- since it is in an urban area, do students generally tend to move off-campus over their 4 years there? Do you know how this would work out for a transfer student?</p>
<p>6) How stressful is registration? I have gone through registration the past year and a half really easily without many problems, and so especially as a transfer I am a bit worried about not being able to get the classes I need. Are the professors pretty easygoing about coming in on the first day of class and letting you in? As a transfer I would probably have to register after everyone else does, so…</p>
<p>7) Can you double count Core requirements? And will some of my classes at my current institution count toward the Core sequence? I do not want to be bogged down by having to take a bunch of required classes my junior and senior year when I would rather take those akin to my major or of just general interest to me, and this worries me. Will my AP credits from high school still count toward any courses or credits I can receive even as a transfer? I like the idea of educating a “whole” person which is why I am more attracted at trying to stay at a liberal arts college (where I am now), but I want to have a sense of freedom when filling my requirements instead of having to choose between very few specific courses.</p>
<p>8) Do many students volunteer on a regular basis? This is something I really miss that I did often in high school and would really love to be a part of again with easy access to, something that I really like Seattle for.</p>
<p>9) The admissions page said that the fall 2008 stats was 61% women and 39% men- is this noticeable? I attend a women’s college, and don’t really regret my decision, but a large factor of me attending is the social life- I feel very stifled and basically miss having guy friends. Could any of you elaborate on what a typical weekend is like for a student?</p>
<p>Thanks! Sorry for the long list of questions and if I’m asking you about a lot of details… (I work in the admission office and am used to getting probed so it’s kind of me now doing the same).</p>
