Should I even bother with an appeal?

if you want to get in, then appeal. What’s the worst that can happen? they say no? you’re already rejected (i’m guessing) no worse off.

that said uw told a friend only 4% get in on appeal, and those are for special circumstances.

I filed an appeal and got in…but wait…i should clarify: i applied to the school the same time i appealed (yes you can do this). i wanted in so badly i wasn’t taking any chances. I’ll never know whether i got in through the regular process or because of my appeal (no mention of appeal in my accepantance)

but that said, if you you really want to go to UW why are you even asking if you should file? just do it.
