Spring 2022: Convey Admissions Decisions

Please be advised the fifth day of instruction, Friday, April 1st, is an important admission deadline for Spring Quarter.

The following actions should be taken in MGP no later than April 1st:

• Defer – admitted for Spring 2022 deferring to a future quarter. See GEMS Graduate Advisor Guide for policies and procedures. (Prior to submitting Admission Petition type: Defer- specify qtr/yr/ offer of admission required, confirm student has withdrawn from all classes via the Student Database system (SDB) SRF-100 Student Schedule Inquiry.)
• Early Entry* – admitted to future quarter planning to begin Spring 2022. See GEMS Graduate Advisor Guide for policies and procedures.
• Change Offer Accepted to Declined Confirmed Status (Applicant paid ECD but will not attend).
• Convey decisions for all Spring 2022 applications, including decisions for late applications.
Note: Applications without decisions are automatically changed to “Denied” status after the 8th day of the quarter.
• Submit student petition to Defer AEP (Academic English Program) requirements – admitted for Spring Quarter 2022 deferring AEP requirement to Autumn Quarter 2022.

Note: Students pay their Enrollment Confirmation Deposit (ECD) via the Enrollment Confirmation System (ECS), which closes on Friday, April 8th for students admitted for Spring quarter. Students cannot pay the ECD in-person or by postal mail.
Please contact gemshelp@uw.edu with any questions.

** A student moving from either Summer or Autumn 2022 to Spring 2022 should be processed as soon as possible to prevent registration problems. If you have any F-1 or J-1 students that wish to begin early entry in Spring Quarter 2022, please contact a GEMS advisor to discuss their specific case.

Thank you for your support in providing graduate students with a positive UW experience.
