Questions about UW Biostat

[faerare]

1) For anyone here who is also applying to the University of Washington, did your status change from "activated" to something else on the graduate application status page after your letter writers submitted their recommendations? I have a professor who I believe has submitted the form, but I haven't seen the label change from "activated" to "complete" or something of the like. I don't even know if it does change! Any insights from fellow applicants would be much appreciated.

 

2) Out of curiosity, does a Washington state resident have any advantage in the application process at UW over a US citizen who has never lived in Washington?

 

Thanks all.

All of my recommenders have submitted their letters. My status is marked as "submitted". I think the advantage for WA residents is more in terms of financial aid than admission. It might matter more for masters than for PhD.

Thanks so much! I asked my contact to resend the letter of recommendation, and it now shows up as "received". One down, two to go.
