Hey guys! Anyone know if the University of Washington (UW) requires SAT scores for admission? Hoping to apply there, but the SAT and I aren't really on friendly terms these days. Any info would be greatly appreciated!
For the 2024-2025 application cycle, the University of Washington (UW) is following a test-optional policy. This means that submitting your SAT scores is not required for your application. If you feel that your SAT score doesn't accurately represent your academic abilities or potential, you can choose not to submit it with your application.
However, it's important to remember that even if a school is test-optional, your whole application needs to be strong. Instead of relying on standardized test scores, the admissions officers will focus more on aspects like your GPA, course rigor, essays, and extracurricular activities. So, make sure to emphasize these other areas of your application. Good luck with your application journey!
