Can anyone who was accepted share the admitted students dates? Just wondering if/when they are doing some on Saturdays in April.

Looks like an overall oos acceptance rate of 39% last year. May be lower this year, itā€™s trending down.

I donā€™t think admitted student dates announced yet. I made a few hotel reservations anticipating what the dates may be.

As a parent of an OOS son who was Deferred for CS, I have respect for schools that look to admit more to in-state students. Iā€™m in WA, and most University of Washington alumni complain their kids with respectable stats canā€™t get in, as the school chases Intā€™l and OOS dollars, so they have to look elsewhere. I think Iā€™ve seen similar frustrations and comments on here as well from in-state parents.

My son wanted to pursue his own path OOS, and thatā€™s fine, but in an ideal world he should be behind comparable in-state candidates.

Email was sent yesterday. There are actually a ton of dates for admitted student tours, specific school days and full days. Most options I have seen a school have so far.

Go to Notification Center section on the Applicant Homepage - you can get the pdf version of the letter there.

Is there a thread on here for all the deferred UW-Madison students? Looks like they only get 3000 words to list anything they want to add, any thoughts?

Not that Iā€™ve seen. Should we start one?

Thanks, can you see if Saturday April 13 is listed? Trying to figure out multiple potential Midwest/East coast trips depending on how it all shakes out.

Thanks, unfortunately thatā€™s same day as IU. Ugh.

Thanks again, Pilate. A deferred thread is a great idea.

Iā€™m reposting this from the Wisconsin EA Deferral thread in case it helps. There is a place for deferred students to self-report mid-term grades and add a brief statement:

Here are the steps:

  1. Enter the Student Center admissions portal
  2. Select the Admissions tile
  3. Select Application Status
  4. Select ā€œMid-year Gradesā€

You can self-report your mid-term grades and below that is a narrow text box that allows you to provide an update of up to 3,000 characters. It only allows one submission. No edits after that submission.

They havenā€™t announced the exact dates yet ā€“ I believe in March we should know more. Itā€™s always held in the summer ā€“ June/July time period.
