The online application will re-open mid-June, 2012 at 12 noon for Autumn 2012 admissions once grades from the previous quarter have been posted. The application is dependent on these grades so it cannot be opened sooner. Please check the directory link to the left for more information regarding individual departments. The application will remain open until the beginning of July (check back for exact date and time).

To apply you will need to:

1. Complete the prerequisite course requirements for Early Admissions, Upper Division Admissions, or Computer Science prior to the application deadline. Applicants with incomplete coursework should contact individual departments before the application period ends to learn if you can be eligible to apply.
   
   
2. Send in transcripts from ALL colleges or universities that you have attended. Each department you apply to needs a separate copy of each transcript. UW transcripts can be printed from MyUW (select "Printer Friendly Version"). See table below to determine each department's transcript requirements. See the Departmental Directory link on the left to find address information for mailing or dropping off transcripts. Some departments now accept electronic copies of transcripts through an online submission form. A link to this form will be provided in the online application. Please read and follow all instructions regarding transcript submission carefully
