UW BSN program 2015

InternetLurker · Mar 7, 2015

Shelley, have you applied to any scholarships? Although a lot of scholarships are due during winter months, there are plenty still available. I honestly haven't thought too much about the financial aspect of UW even though I should. I am hoping that financial aid will cover most/all of my costs(besides books) because I am low income but I know it's kind of silly to rely on that. I did apply for a few scholarships so hopefully that will help. I hate that it costs so much, so unfortunate. I don't think student loans are really fair either but that's a whole different topic lol. Perhaps your aid package from UW will give you more clarity on what option is right for you. Good luck!

. Congrats!!! But Are you talking about BSN program at UW seattle? or RN-BSN at UW Bothell?

allypoox3 · Mar 9, 2015

Oh no, sorry. I'll be starting at UW Tacoma. I was thinking about applying for UW Bothell but I think it was too late by the time I had decided.

InternetLurker,

I'm waiting for the scholarship application to open up on 4.15, but I don't have much hope for scholarships/grants because I'm OOS. The majority of the UW scholarships are for residents since UW is a public school. I'm pretty much resolving to work the 30 hours a week for the year so I can claim residency the second year. If I get into UW, I plan to stay in Seattle after graduation any way... Not too long before we find out, now!

Where did everybody go? I'm making a wager that they mail letters next Friday. :cautious:

I hope that they send them early! I am so anxious to hear back! @Shelleybaumer- If you don't mind me asking, what account were they asking you to set up? Was it just for the UW application or for FASFA? Keeping my fingers we all hear good news soon!!!

I was asked to set up a myUW account. It's a preliminary thing and doesn't mean anything other than I applied as a transfer student.

"We're glad that you have applied to the Seattle campus of the University of Washington. We now invite you to set up your official UW account.

Why set up a UW account? If you become a UW student, you'll need one for lots of reasons. For now, it's useful so you can check:

Your email address - where we will contact you if we need additional information
Your postal address - where we will mail your admission decision letter

If additional information is needed, your account will tell you that too.

We are in the midst of reviewing applications and on track to make and mail decisions according to our transfer notification period.

All the best to you,

David Sundine

Assistant Director of Admissions

University of Washington

Seattle, WA"

Oh that makes sense! I am a returning student (got my BA from UW in 2010) so I already have a myUWaccount. I noticed you are applying/ want to apply for scholarships. I am in the same boat as I am returning back to WA and have been told I will have to pay out of state tuition rates for the 1st year. It is so much money!! Another great place to look even though it is a tad bit more competative is at the ANA website as they offer general scholarships too! Good luck!
