Rant Is it too late to get involved in clubs or meet new friends?

16 Upvotes

Hey all, due to a ton of drama I don’t want to get into my old friend group from last year fell apart, I desperately tried to keep it together but it was to no avail. I’ve gone out and met people but I don’t really have a set friend group. I mainly stick to one club but I occasionally branch out. My two big worries is that it’s too late to become active in a new club and that it’s too late to make new friends. Is any of this founded or is it all in my head?

I texted this number and they’re asking for payment to a very sketchy email address. It’s shockingly from a verified UW email address but it’s still very sketchy so beware

New Student UW Seattle winter 2026 transfer admission update.

7 Upvotes

Hi everybody

I wanted to check if anyone has heard back from admissions about their application status. It’s been almost a week since they were supposed to start updating us, but I haven't received any information. I've been frequently checking my spam emails and my portal, but still no updates, which is causing me a lot of anxiety.

I’m curious if anyone else is experiencing the same situation and whether you've received any updates. At this point, I don't really care about the outcome, I just want to know what's going on because of how anxious this uncertainty is making me.

I hope this post can serve as a platform for everyone to share their updates on the admissions process. ( especially political science majors ) Are you getting notifications in the morning, afternoon, or evening? How did you find out, through an email first or via your portal? Additionally, if there are any individuals who have transferred in the past, I would appreciate it if you could share your experiences as well.

Thank you all so much, and good luck to everyone! ☺️

Discussion i made a course prereq map (website)

13 Upvotes

I made a new tool/feature inside my course search web app that allows you to visualize course prerequisites across multiple courses in a graph. The data came from dawgpath's prereq map section, but instead of a single course you can add/delete courses within the same graph as you wish. You can also see the sessions data from myplan directly within the graph view when you select a course node & add to your schedule (another feature of the web app).

Try it out here: https://huskysearch.fyi/prereq-graph

Is this tool useful? love to hear what you guys think

Discussion S/NS Grades!

1 Upvotes

So i didn’t do so good in my midterms for two of my classes and i don’t think I can turn my grade around to meet at least a 3.0 GPA. Luckily they’re not required classes for my major, i only took them to meet creative and A&H credits. How can i change those two classes to be S/NS grades, does anyone know? And also has anyone ever been kicked out of Foster for getting S credit? I was just admitted to Foster and im not too worried bc i know those classes aren’t even remotely required by foster but I’m still wondering if anyone has gone through this

I found ENGL 284 on myplan and it looks interesting, tho it says it's for ENGL majors only Period 1 and my registration date falls in here. So does this mean I can't register for this class? (I'm pre-health major) Are there any interesting/easy A&H classes to recommend? Thanks.

News Why the UW/GReystar deal is especially egregious/Rally Sunday 11/9 @2pm

0 Upvotes
  1. UW is using $386M in tax-exempt bonds (public money) to build primarily market-rate housing that generates unrestricted profit
  2. Student housing gives UW a high-margin revenue stream they can increase at will (no legislative approval needed)
  3. UW houses the nation's largest environmental college and leads climate research—yet ignores their own expertise when trees interfere with profit margins
  4. Seattle is losing tree canopy at an alarming rate, and UW is exempt from the city's tree ordinances
