We will perform a pre-transfer evaluation of the credits you have already earned using your unofficial transcript. This will help you determine which credits might transfer to UW, but keep in mind that our registrar's office will use your official transcripts to do an official evaluation once you have been admitted to UW.

You likely submitted a FAFSA application before beginning your undergraduate studies. If your financial status has changed since then, make sure to fill out a new one as this helps you become eligible for financial aid from UW.
