Undergraduate Academic Affairs advances and deepens undergraduate education at the University of Washington. By connecting undergraduates to the breadth and depth of the UW’s opportunities, and by creating new ways to connect, we guide students toward participating in the life of our University so they are equipped and eager for their journey ahead.
Husky Experience highlights
Congrats Udall Scholar Jonathan Kwong!
Kwong is pursuing a bachelor’s degree in environmental science and resource management with a minor in oceanic and Pacific Islander studies. The national scholarship recognizes students for their leadership, public service and commitment to issues related to American Indian nations or to the environment.
A pathway with promise
The first cohort of participants in the Path to UW partnership have wrapped up a year of advice and support. Eighty-three Seattle Promise students applied to the UW during this process, and 60 were admitted for the upcoming 2022-23 academic school year.
Safely gathering for summer quarter classes and experiences
Summer quarter classes, experiences and services are being offered largely in person as we continue to stay vigilant to the continued presence of COVID-19. The University strongly recommends wearing a high-quality mask, due to higher case rates in the region.
Remember: If you are sick with any illness, you must stay home.
