Has anyone heard from UW yet?

 

[flying rider]

Regarding an interview? No. At least.. I haven't gotten one.

 

[dreamscometrue5]

Yeah, I haven't either.

Do you know until when they interview candidates?

I turned in my app in June and still havent heard anything...makes me crazy

I'd be calling them if I were you... I mailed 8/10 and have already received and mailed off my secondary

Nothing about interviews. I got my supplimental and payment sent in last week though. My aadsas was in june 2 and dat done Aug 28th.

How long after your submission did you get your secondary? Mine was sent on 8.24 and I still haven't heard anything from them other than the we have received ur app email!

 

[anschutz1913]

Mailed my secondary off today. I feel that schools should just re-read AADSAS before sending secondaries that ask the same questions....

 

[doc3232]

Wow...will I ever get a secondary. I am OOS.
I emailed them using that email option on their site. Probably should call.

I was mailed on 8/10 and received the secondary about a month later.

 

[doc3232]

Anyone else not getting a secondary who submitted in the first batch? I sent the DAT scores in July.

 

[dreamscometrue5]

this is so frustrating, the UW mailbox is still full.

Does anyone have an alternate phone # to call other than the one on the website?

I got a secondary from them wednesday (9.16) last wk. Submitted it on Friday!

E-submitted 6.2
Verified in mid June; mailed 7.10
DAT 7.27
Scores received by some of my schools (additional score report request filing) including UW (thanks to an ADA error) 9.10

I sent my secondary via certified mail a couple of weeks ago and it still hasn't been signed for. I'm thinking they're on a break... maybe until undergrad fall quarter starts next week?

 

[Atticus]

Hmm... Interesting. I mailed mine next day with signature confirmation last Friday and it was signed for on Monday morning.

Ah, crud. The postman who stickered and stamped my envelope even gave it a little blessing for extra luck. Maybe he actually put a curse on it so it wouldn't even make it to UW.

 

[metrobren]

I have a friend who has a secondary, but that is all I have heard about the UW.

Aside from that, I'll so glad they best SC! I love Jake Locker (I know this is off topic)

 

[pinkpari27]

I received my secondary 9/4 and sent it out 9/10, and haven't heard anything back yet, how do I know when they receive it? Did anyone get an application complete email??
Thanksss

You will know when they cash your check. They won't even consider your app till they make sure the check is good. I think once they cash it, you are getting there.

drm85, may I ask how you finally resolved the DAT issue? I took my DAT 7.29. The ADA errors must have occurred right around that window of time (?), because I emailed UW last week and they responded that they still hadn't received my scores. I called Department of Testing Services and they confirmed my DAT scores were in fact made available to all schools on 8.12 (at 11:30 am, apparently). I emailed UW with this info (their voice mailbox is still full) but can't get them to reply now to confirm they've received my DAT scores.

I don't know how to resolve this, other than to wait and email / call again in a few days.... The rest of my app and secondary are all in. Ah well.

(...this thread is reassuring, though. Thanks...)

The person I spoke to was:
Cynthia Willett
Senior Testing Technician
Department of Testing Services
312.440.7648

I went back and forth with her for 3 hrs and called schools to see if they could see scores. Don't take no for an answer as the ADA is tough to work with. Their IT dept. made an error in processing my additonal score request. They had no record of the schools I requested; I emailed them the reciept and then got somewhere.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Aaargh, my sympathies, drm85, that sounds very frustrating. Thanks for the reply. Yes, when I called DTS last week I spoke with Cynthia as well. She was able to help me efficiently, and it was probably because people such as yourself had already called her and laid the groundwork. She had a very "I know, I know, I've seen this before" tone, which was reassuring.

The problem NOW, however, is getting a person at UW to confirm they can actually access my scores, which Cynthia assures me were SENT 8.12 @ 11:30 am. My only email from UW Admissions said they had not received them, and that was a week ago, before I had nailed down this info w/Cynthia.

Anyway. Thanks again for your reply. Best of luck to you!

(These issues will soon be minor blips in our rearview mirrors, of course...)

You will know when they cash your check. They won't even consider your app till they make sure the check is good. I think once they cash it, you are getting there.

The problem is that the check and supplemental application have to be mailed separately to two different PO Boxes. My check was cashed a couple of weeks ago, but the secondary still hasn't been received. I think the only way to really know (if you didn't send certified) is to call them, but probably after they start reviewing their voice mail.

 

[flying rider]

Yeah, I just sent it via normal mail.. I assumed the secondary was received because I sent it about a month ago so.. i HOPE it's received.

 

[Atticus]

I sent my app fee to them on Friday via regular mail from Idaho and they deposited it yesterday.

 

[shloopy]

Received email from UW Admissions today. They are downloading a batch of DAT scores on Friday (9.25), in case anyone SDNers out there, like me, are waiting for their scores to be received by UW.

 

[jj007]

For those who submitted their application in September, have you received the secondary application?
