The UW Office of Admissions will offer freshman direct admission based on a holistic review that includes established criteria and selection guidelines developed in partnership with the Informatics program. However, courses such as AP Computer Science Principles and AP Computer Science A are good preparation for some of the programming courses required by the degree, and may give you a sense of some of the topics in data, design, development and society that our degree teaches.Īll freshman applicants who meet UW admissions criteria and who list Informatics as their first-choice major on their application will be automatically considered for freshman direct admission. It is not a requirement to have had computer programming courses in high school, or computer-related work experience, to gain admission to our program.
The best high school preparation for pursuing Informatics is to take advanced high school classes (Honors, AP, IB, etc.) in English, math and science. Note that for Direct Admission, we only consider applicants for autumn admission. Check UW Office of Admissions’ website for details. 15 is the application deadline for freshmen to the UW - this includes Running Start students. By simply selecting “Informatics” as your first-choice major on your UW application, you will automatically be considered for Direct Admission. The best way to join our community is Direct Admission, which gives high school students with a strong interest in studying Informatics the chance to apply to the iSchool while filling out their UW application. However, until the school grows large enough to meet demand, Informatics is a capacity constrained major. Everyone interested in Informatics deserves to join our community.
