Meet one-on-one with an EA

Find an Engineering Ambassador whose interests or experiences match your own and learn about their UW Engineering student experience. You can ask them: What's it like being an engineering student at UW? How have you gotten involved on campus? Do you have any tips for an incoming UW student? How did you choose your major?

Click the "Meet with me" link in their bio to schedule a virtual meeting. Please note that EAs are not academic or admissions counselors.
