Hey everyone, I'm keen on applying to the University of Washington. Can anyone tell me if they still require the SAT for their application? Thanks in advance!
For the 2024-2025 application cycle, the University of Washington (UW) has opted to continue its test-optional policy. This means you have the choice to submit your SAT scores, but it's not a requirement for your application. If you believe your SAT scores strengthen your application, and they accurately reflect your academic potential, you are welcome to submit them. However, if you don't think they represent your academic capabilities well, or if you didn't have the opportunity to take the test, you can leave them out. The admissions committee will not penalize you for not submitting scores, so it's entirely your decision based on what you think best represents your academic potential.
