University Of Washington Graduate School Admission Results

Previously interviewed on phone.

"Thank you for your application to the University of Washington Graduate School. We appreciate your consideration of the University of Washington (UW) Immunology PhD program for your graduate school education. The Immunology Admissions Committee met in December to discuss each application in the Immunology applicant pool and decided which 30 applicants to invite for interviews (out of a total 237 applications). We regret to inform you that after careful deliberation your application was not among the few that were selected for admission to this program. The number and quality of graduate applicants to the University of Washington are extraordinary and these difficult decisions are reached through careful consideration of all applicants to a given program. In many cases, enrollment restrictions are also a factor, limiting our ability to accept all qualified applicants. While we know that it is disappointing to receive a letter such as this, we encourage you to continue to explore graduate opportunities in other programs here at the University of Washington or elsewhere. Thank you for the time and effort you invested into applying to our graduate program, as we recognize that expenditures of money and time to do so can be considerable. On behalf of the Admissions Committee, we want to extend our best wishes to you in your future educational endeavors and hope that you continue to pursue a graduate education here or at other world-class universities.

Got rejected by the Ph.D. program; Was offered MS program

To person below. The data I’ve seen (most recent 2018) show that only about 53% of those accepted enrolling in the program. Not sure how they include waitlisters in that data or how much they over recruit to account for this trend, but don’t lose all hope yet.

Just want to give encouragement to people facing rejections. I was accepted to a “higher ranked” program prior to this. This game is mostly luck but also truly about fit and where you’ve made the best case for yourself

to the post below: did you get the waitlist today? i haven't heard anything from the admission yet. seems like a silent rejection

Game over, standard message.

but no funding info!

And so the waiting continues.

One year professional degree program.

Accepted for MS program, no funding
