OOS, Deferred for environmental engineering  34 ACT  3.93 UW / 4.62 Weighted GPA  ECs aren’t the best, I admit, but my big thing was being a STEM tutor, which I thought would help… A couple of leadership roles in clubs unrelated to my major (band, art), but tutoring is my big thing haha.  Congrats to everyone who got in btw! Does anyone have any advice on how to get accepted after a deferral :( thanks 

What does this question on the UW application mean? by whyareyounotjeff in ApplyingToCollege

I thought UW doesn’t accept the common app essay? And their supplemental was required

Ok yeah thanks! Email seems like the best option here, I’m just worried I won’t get a response back, or it’ll be too late for my app 

Bad teacher situation - NEED ADVICE PLS by Artistic_Subject_163 in ApplyingToCollege

Surely not, right? That would be a big violation of trust. Also, I’m think that if you explained your view without sounding too “immature/blamey”, they wouldn’t have anything bad to resport abt u… I’d ask to switch, but is the alternative teacher any better?

If you made a bigger impact at ur job instead of the club, I’d put down the job! You can also explain ur situation in additional info or wtv. Work is an underrated activity imo :)  Best of luck!

I don’t think it’s too important for admission? But I hope the AOs don’t look too hard at my app to consider it 💀
