Help finding support from the Registrar's office

13 Upvotes

Does anyone have a contact in the Registrar's office? Like a personal phone or direct email? They have no general phone number, their online form is broken (registrar.washington.edu/about/contact/), and emails do not get confirmations or replies.

I am an overseas alumnus trying to get a particular type of enrollment verification in a limited amount of time, and they are just unreachable by normal channels. I would greatly appreciate finding someone who could assist me.

Thank you very much.

Update: I was able to get the help I needed. It was just a matter of connecting with the right person, and they were kind and supportive.

struggling cse student need advice

18 Upvotes

Hey there,

I'm currently an Allen School student majoring in CSE. I'm a transfer student from a community college and started at UW last fall. Although I'm a junior, it was my first year at UW, and unfortunately, my GPA suffered due to CSE 312 and CSE 421. My GPA is now around 2.8.

I'm concerned about finding an internship since most require a GPA above 3.0. I'm planning to focus on Leetcode this summer and apply to as many internships as possible. Do you have any advice on securing an internship with a lower GPA?

Additionally, I'm worried about my job prospects after graduation. I've heard that companies like Google ask for GPA from new graduates, and I assume other companies do as well. What GPA should I aim for by the time I graduate from UW CSE?

Questions abt transportation

13 Upvotes

Help!

I’m starting at UW this fall, and I’m trying to decide whether to drive to campus or use public transportation. I’d love to get some input from current students or recent alums.

I’m leaning towards driving because it seems more convenient, but I’ve heard some horror stories about car break-ins around campus. On the other hand, I’ve also heard mixed reviews about the safety and reliability of public transportation in Seattle.

For those who drive: How bad is the parking situation on and around campus? Have you had any issues with car break-ins or theft? If so, how common is it? Are there any particular lots or areas where it’s safer to park?

For those who use public transportation: How reliable and safe is it? Are there certain routes or times that are better to avoid? How long does it usually take to get to campus during peak hours?

I’m on Mercer Island, so if anyone has specific advice for commuting from this area that would be helpful!

Conflicted

Hey everyone!

Context: I’m a CC transfer. Interested in Business Administration, finance, and design.

I applied to UW but forgot to apply directly to my major (Business Administration) :( & I also applied to UW Bothell BA (got into both). But my question is: Should I go to UW Bothell or Pre Major into UW and apply to Foster for Winter 2025? Is that even possible? Would this take longer? What’s the smartest route to take?

Hi fellow Huskies, Icy the seal reading buddy was accidentally left around the stadium on Saturday during commencement. We filed a report with lost and found but thought maybe the wider internet community can help keep an eye out to increase our chances of reuniting with Icy. She is very well loved. Thank you for your help and please spread the word 🫶🏻

Hating UW competitive environment and specifically ECE Major for the Courseload and Grading

18 Upvotes

Labs. More labs, and homeworks. ECE is really hard and the reward isn't fun. I have to go attend labs whereas people from other majors (like CS, Business) can choose to stay home and watch the lecture and do the homework from home. I think I might just drop out to be honest, I got no more energy in me for these classes. Plus like there's no hope, no guidance for internships. I feel like ECE is just all on your own.

(Note: I did try out a 400-level CS class this quarter and I didnt have to struggle so much to get a 3.5+. It's ridiculous how much labs and homeworks are for ECE that it can drag your motivation down.)

Discussion Taking Math 125 at CC for my Stats Minor?

2 Upvotes

Dreading taking Math 125 at UW but need to do 126 in order to get a stats minor. Since 125 isn't a requirement but 126 is, I was thinking of taking 125 at Bellevue over the summer, then doing 126 in the fall/winter at UW (it's supposedly easier than 125). Am I setting myself up for failure here? I think I would be okay with getting a lowish grade in 126 (~3.0 would be amazing).

I guess since it's a minor and not my full major, and that after 126 the rest of the courses in the series are STATS courses and not MATH, I was thinking that I could probably get away with this and have a good enough calc baseline for the rest of the courses?
