I am in state, and this is for undergraduate admissions.

When I applied to UW, I applied requesting a CS major. A couple of months ago, when I got admitted, I got the news that I didn't get my major, and it was only a pre-science major. I've seen some of the vague comments on the major, such as "if you got it js go to a different major" or "go to a community college first". I'm asking now since I have a sense of interest in pursuing an engineering major, is it possible to request classes leading up/the prereqs for engineering or do I have to be directly admitted to engineering first? I'm so lost about what to take for my schedule and having the A&O meetings coming up, it is not helping at all. Am i just bound to be a blank slate till junior year?

>>> Greatly appreciate more info on the major itself if possible (The websites from UW don't say much)

>>>I am an incoming freshman to UW Seattle

hi!

i was given housing accommodations for the dorms and throughout my process i was told through email multiple times that both me and my roommate would be assigned and not need to go through the selection process (my roommate does not have accommodations).

I was assigned to a room with my accommodations but not paired with my intended roommate. It says i am paired with a tracer w.

i was wondering if this is a placeholder/filler and i will be able to pair with my roommate or how i should go about this if not?
thanks!

Hey,

I'm visiting UW to meet with some people for a program I'm considering applying to. I'll be driving down from Canada and bringing my bike. Is there a good place to park for free that's relatively safe, where I can bike to campus (ideally within a ~30-minute ride)? Any recommendations would be appreciated!

Thanks!

my roommate and i were able to get a double in terry hall on the 5th floor after some initial housing problems and i’ve seen a lot of stuff saying that terry is like the worst hall to live in socially and that the distance from campus is not worth it. (a lot of my classes are at or around kane hall) is it really that bad or will we be fine?

Myself and some others have been putting together a collaboration of UW RSOs offering their zines for free at the Seattle Zine Fair this Sunday. So far, we will be offering zines from the Student Mycology Club and Viable Veganism at UW (soon to be rebranded) and we hope to have more clubs partner with us so we can offer their zines too. DM or comment if your club/RSO is interested in having copies of their zines given out at the event!

Im going into the college of arts and science as a freshman this year as a pre social science student and I’ve gotten the rsn and NSc credits required, at least I think, to meet graduation requirements from ap’s (calc 124, physics 114/117, chem 142/152, stat 290, and cse 110) and I was wondering if i need to take any other rsn classes afterwards such as math 125 or 208 for example or if im good. I was also wondering if you guys had any recommendations for good classes to start off with as a freshman as I’ve had a hard time choosing since there seems to be infinite options. Thank you!

hello! i just got a single in hansee hall for my freshman year at uw and i was wondering what rooms have the window seat on the 3rd floor of hansee hall?
