justonestep Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Any recent news from UW Evans? The website says that they will send out notification on 3/15, however I haven't heard anything ........
Nimesis Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Sorry if this seems harsh, but I've got to be honest. Evans has been the least impressive in terms of this whole application process of all the schools I applied to. They didn't send any emails about notifications pending, and when I called the office they gave me a very very generic "decisions are forthcoming" statement which was pretty irritating. I don't know if it has to do with their tenuous budget issues/battle for independence, but the way they've handled this whole process has been pretty unimpressive to say the least. Is it just me, or did anyone else have a different impression of the school?
ca010 Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I agree with Nimesis. I read one or two posts from last year with the same issue. It's too bad because I went into the process hoping Evans would be a school that I could possibly get some funding from and Seattle is a great city. But I'm quite skeptical at this point
iToldUso Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I got a email two days ago, said : Admissions decisions are being finalized and will be sent soon. Thanks for your patience.
kyeulsa Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I just got a call notifying me that I would be accepted and they were sending out packets, not sure if they are planning on calling everyone.
pushpin Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I just got a call notifying me that I would be accepted and they were sending out packets, not sure if they are planning on calling everyone. Just received a call also that I've been accepted. Packets are in the mail. I asked about funding but she said she didn't know the specifics.
Browns0286 Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Just got a call as well. No information on funding.
justonestep Posted March 17, 2011 Author Posted March 17, 2011 Thank you for all the reply. Just waiting for the call.........
Nimesis Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 I also just received the call. Visit days are March 30th - April 1st for anyone interested.
overtb Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 I got the call as well. I live in Seattle, so I'll let you all know as soon as the packet comes in.
2shieh Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 Got my call today too. I'm also a little disappointed in the lack of communication from their admissions office... but I'm still planning on making a visit. Anyone else looking to visit during their open house days?
justonestep Posted March 18, 2011 Author Posted March 18, 2011 got my call in the afternoon finally....will attend the open house.....
cynthia.gai Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 No call yet. Maybe because I'm an international student.
dmangan Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 Just got my call this morning at 8:30am PST, so relieved!
mlerette Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 Got the call this morning at 830. I think this was a test to see who was hung over after St. Patty's day. They mey be rethinking my acceptence after that groggy phone call. More information will supposedly be here next week.
iToldUso Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 I'm in! Just got an email said I have been recommended for graduate admission beginning Autumn 2011. But I need to send some additional application materials to the Graduate School before 4/1/2011. no mention on funding. i suppose i won't get any... Bless those who haven't got any news from Evans~~~
Super_Goal Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 Hi, overtb! I have received my e-mail this morning and been told that I have accepted to Evans, but I still need additional ducuments. But anyway, I am so happy! You live in seattle? So can you tell me more about this city? Is it exacyly like I saw on Internet, that it has more than 200 cloudy days? Thank you ! I got the call as well. I live in Seattle, so I'll let you all know as soon as the packet comes in.
Zon Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Also got the call and I will be driving over for the orientation.
stompor Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 I got a letter in the mail notifying me of admission today, but I had already received a call last week. The letter said I would hear from them if I would receive funding... but when?
justonestep Posted March 22, 2011 Author Posted March 22, 2011 Anyone heard about when they will release funding information? I got a letter in the mail notifying me of admission today, but I had already received a call last week. The letter said I would hear from them if I would receive funding... but when?
Nimesis Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Anyone heard about when they will release funding information? It vaguely says that we will be "notified" if we receive funding, but I'm going to call them tomorrow and ask them when that information will be released and/or if I received funding. I will report back tomorrow. Its very unlikely that I will be attending UW so I have nothing to lose bugging them a little.

Guess I'll take a break and let you take a crack at it
justonestep Posted March 22, 2011 Author Posted March 22, 2011 haha~~will wait for your information tomorrow~~ It vaguely says that we will be "notified" if we receive funding, but I'm going to call them tomorrow and ask them when that information will be released and/or if I received funding.

Nimesis Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 haha~~will wait for your information tomorrow~~ Sorry guys I tried. I called them and they said that the funding info will be announced "in the next couple weeks". I'm not sure that these generic answers are really winning them any favorability when people are making their decisions... Its pretty annoying actually.
