So I know the University of Washington’s Direct admission for Engineering is very competitive.

And i know when you’re accepted as a Direct Admit, you get to start your engineering major as a freshman.

However, I’m confused in … When you apply for engineering in the “regular” way (during juinro year after prereq’s), you have 2 years to receive a bachelor in engineering.

So if you’re a direct admit, do you finish undergrad/bachelors in 2 years?

If not … what is the benefit of direct admission?
