My son got acceptance to Engineering undeclared, his first choice was Electrical and computer engineering, international student. How will be the progroms for Engineering undeclared majors?
Also he got acceptance to UW- Madison, Virginia tech, UMass Amherst, Umich and ASU all for Electrical engineering.
Engineering undeclared (ENGRUD) is the normal path for students wishing to study most engineering majors at UW. They all enter as ENGRUD, and then there is a process to apply to your preferred majors.
Hereās the general intro to how it works: Engineering Undeclared Students (ENGRUDs) | UW College of Engineering
Admission to majors information: Placement into a major | UW College of Engineering
And this page shows some historical placement information that can give you a sense of which majors are the most competitive for admission: Placement data | UW College of Engineering
If you want to discuss the pros and cons of several schools where he was admitted, it can be good to start a new thread, like āComparing schools X Y and Z for electrical engineering major?ā
That way you donāt get lost in this big thread about UW admissions 
Thank you very much for all your inputs. Also his dream school is UW only. Just wanted to know about engineering undeclared as i didnāt know much about it
My son was admitted last year for ENGRUD. Although he ended up choosing another school, he liked the structure of the curriculum in UW engineering. ENGRUD students start with core courses that are applicable to all engineering majors, and have time to explore different majors and career paths before the major placement process.
The drawback (for students who have their heart set on a specific major) is that your first choice is not guaranteed. However, it seems that most ENGRUD students are placed into their first or second choice major.
Hey, i got in to uwash but not computer science, it rather says pre science, what does that even mean
Rejected. OOS. CS:)))
accepted! oos, purple and gold $5400
pre-sciences
stats: 4.0 uw, 4.35 w, 1570 sat, ok extra-curricular
The last time the Honors link worked for me, it was saying that the Honors decisions would be released over a month btw Mar 15 and April 15.
D24 got in as well. OOS, 34 ACT, 4.66/4.0.
Can someone tell me where they state the scholarship offers?
What are the subjects that they offer to someone whoās been selected for the pre social science major?
could someone please tell
Thanks a lot for your detailed answers. Also may i know which college your son finally chose?
can you explain what they mean by pre science as i had applied for cs and got pre science, what does that mean
You can look above for other discussions on this but it means you will likely not be able to major in CS. You would have to try and switch into the Cs major after you matriculated which is challenging as it is a constrained major.
could someone tell me about this ??
wellā¦ my first rejection has come from uw. i applied for psych. im in state, first gen, 3.95 uwgpa, full time community college student as a high school senior with a 4.0uw there. it was supposed to be my safety school as it has the highest acceptance of any schools i applied to, plus im already into uc davis, sdsu, and cal poly slo. im just so shocked. i guess itās been decided im going to california (:
Accepted! In-state for CS! Variety ECs, course rigor (15 APs), strong personal statement/story.
My in-state kid was waitlisted with 3.99 GPA, 5 AP, 2 Hn, 2 UWHS, four years of football and a PT job. Iām pretty much ready to move to another state.
My oos daughter waitlistedā¦
