Spring 2020: Convey Admissions Decision Deadline

Please be advised the fifth day of instruction, Friday, April 3rd, is an important admission deadline for Spring Quarter.

The following actions should be taken in MyGradProgram no later than April 3rd:

  • Submit admission petitions
    • Confirm the student has withdrawn from all classes (see SRF100 in the Student Database or MGP transcripts).
    • Defer – admitted for Spring 2020 deferring to a future quarter
    • Early Entry* – admitted to future quarter planning to begin Spring 2020
    • Change Offer Accepted to Declined Confirmed Status (Applicant paid ECD but will not attend).
  • Convey decisions for all Spring 2020 applications, including decisions for late applications
  • Submit student petition
    • Defer AEP requirements

We encourage you to refer to our Dates & Deadlines calendar for quarterly “Convey Admissions Decisions” deadlines and the GEMS Graduate Advisor Guide for details on the petition processes described above. Please contact gemshelp@uw.edu with any questions about the admission deadline.

* A student moving from a future quarter to start Spring 2020 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 in Spring Quarter, please contact a GEMS advisor to discuss their specific case.
