LET US KNOW YOU'RE COMING!

Our Cowboys, particularly fall 2020's freshman class, had a turbulent year. We want to welcome these returning students ‘back’ in a way that feels similar to what their first few weeks on campus would’ve been like – had COVID not interrupted the journey.

Created for UW students entering their sophomore year in fall 2021, the Cowboy Comeback will feature socialization and community-building opportunities, on-campus resource highlights and important topics for this audience.

We invite you to explore our newest student resource for finding information related to your success at UW. We have built a special hub just for students to find resources based on the journey they're in at that very moment in their college career.
