@@1tolivethroughit170 I want to know more about targeted people and your experience. Was part of a large group of targeted individuals. We took our plight to City Council where we experienced people afraid of being targeted themselves. tiprotects@gmail.com
@@shellyhoyle4401 well, it really is a long story. Unfortunately City Council is truly guilty w/their involvements and greed. It's a theatrical stage for them. Their main target is everyone, including their own group (rat race). Depending on what initiative they want to pass mostly depends on who they'll target as a victim and others as predators. My story is posted on my page. I have found relief getting out of WA but damage has taken major effects as the mind control/programming is still in effect.
Thank you so much for this video. I live on the East coast, and the University of Washington is the only school on the West coast I am actually interested in going to. Because I cannot visit the school considering it is so far away, it is videos like these that will help me to make my final decision in the future.
Emily C I'm glad to hear that you are considering UW as an east coaster! There are so many fun things to do in Seattle especially if you are an outdoors person. Amazing hiking, skiing, kayaking, mountain biking, rock climbing, and so much more. Also the IMA is one of the most incredible gyms I have ever seen! Pick up basketball, volleyball, ping pong, badminton, and so much more on a regular basis. Also the live music scene is incredible. So many great bands have come out of seattle.
The people in Seattle sound exactly like me: non-confrontational and does not socialize a lot. On top of that, I'm Asian and I like cloudy days... University of Washington is sounding pretty good right now, except the out-of-state tuition cost ;-; I'm considering taking a gap year and waiting for the coronavirus pandemic to blow over while trying to become a resident of Washington--there's about a $27,000 difference between the resident and non-resident total estimated cost.
dude, I'm a Seattlite raised here since I was 8. The ppl here are pretty passive aggressive (especially the richer, whiter neighborhoods), which I suppose is non-confrontational, but you'd be a bit hard pressed for diversity of thought as many people go with what other people say rather than doing their own research. The arts are lowkey dying bc of Corona, but we have so many lovely little venues everywhere and different neighborhood vibes depending on what your personality is. Along with music, we also have lots of theatre and interesting food. The U district (surrounding the campus) has tons of awesome hole-in-the-wall places and thrift options for students on a budget. And during the spring and summer, Greenlake is only a 15 min bus ride away for tons of water activities and park spaces. If you are non-confrontational but pretty easy going, i would checkout downtown ballard. it's got a really relaxed vibe and has lots of small businesses and fun shops for any possible interests you may have. The one thing that a lot of people don't get about seattle tho is we do have a lot of homeless people on the streets, so sometimes that will dictate whether I take a late shift at my job or not. Hope that helps! (P.S. you're gonna love WA's minimum wage: $16.39/hour babEYyyy)
IDK but this video really helped me realize just what I'm going to have to face and deal with at UW.... I just moved to Seattle from a small island called Guam so its a big change i just hope it all works out. thanks man
Thank you for the video! I recently got into UW, and I'm going to be a freshman. I am very worried about the competitive environment. I'm hoping to meet new people, and hopefully they'll be a lot more open!
Hey! That’s really cool. Looking for advice, I got confused on the “heavy workload” part. From experience, would you say it’s overwhelming or too difficult?😅
LOLOLOL, if you like Asia girls come to UW ;) that part is so funny hahahahahahaha, great video! You pretty much summed up what I think about our school.
Wow !! I found this video at a right time. Today 11/10/2023. Right now I’m working as an SDE at Amazon and looking to transition my carrier in a different path.
I am not sure how I wandered into this, but I think that the statement "people in Seattle don't socialize" needs to be qualified a little. I am not from Seattle and I am a grad student at UW. Although I found it a bit different than what I am used to, I think that my experience has been completely different. I have been open to doing different things-not saying you have not-and in doing so I have made a lot of friends and had some incredible times in Seattle so far. People told me about the "Seattle Freeze" when I came here and have always been shocked when I tell them that I am going out to kick it with people that I met a few weekends ago. I have done some seriously cool s**t with some seriously cool people here. I am just saying that my experience is altogether different.
U Dub is my absolute dream school and I hope I get in!! I have a decent SAT score and pretty good grades and I do a lot of extra curricular activities as well as a job. I’m nervous though because I’d be an out of state kid from Nevada Im also trying to pursue Business do you know how competitive that major is?
Awesome vid! Ppl outside of WA...I highly recommend KU. I’ve lived all over the country & in the beginning stages of college shopping for my kids. My son wants UW for Engineering. Certain he’ll do well. It’s like he’s Asian, but mostly Italian. 😂
I m from india. I really want to do my Mba in UW but i just cant apply only one place. Its very difficult for me to find out any other University. Can u tell me any other university? Please
Lolololol dorms here are 10,000 dollars (yes at public schools) For real though! Thank you so much for this video, I'm looking into doing my masters at UW and I live on the east coast.
I’m in Vancouver so I am in driving distance from the school I’m currently a freshman in high school I’m having a lot of issues figuring out my future. Recently I found that UW seemed like a nice school, and it offers Wildlife biology which is what I’m interested in majoring in. But I heard you are not allowed to have a car on campus your first year. What’s all that about?
i live in europe (specifically hungary) and i’ve been looking for going to university abroad and i’m scared it’s kind of impossible in terms of getting in or paying the tuition fee/housing etc. also not being a top student (kind average among hungarian students) i feel like i have no option to choose to go abroad or stay in my country. i’ve been watching these kinds of videos just to help ke decide if i really want to go abroad, and if yes, how can i get into a university
Know it's been hard to connect at UW during the pandemic, but thankful for the events hosted here to stay connected! uw.acts2fellowship.org/upcoming-events
I'm going to be applying in a few months (graduating HS in 2018) and I was just wondering if you knew how hard it is to get in. I'm local so it seems like the perfect school for me but my SAT scores were pretty low, though my grades are decent. I'm also looking to go into the art program there, idk if that would be less competitive or what. Thanks for the awesome video btw! :)
Thanks! It's not too hard to get in I would say (unless you compare it to only other Washington schools). SAT scores are 1/3 of the evaluation while grades are 2/3 so having better grades is more important. The art program is also less competitive, yes. The stem majors are where most of the competition is.
Maxine Adams I got in with 3.6 GPA and 1280 SAT and 27 ACT. Also did running start 2 years and had a lot of credits. My RS gpa was a 3.8 and my HS gpa was 3.5. I got waitlisted at first, but I sent an appeal letter and was accepted day after I sent it.
Hi Maxine, if you would like a free college mentor from UW Seattle you can sign up at heymentor.org we're a new nonprofit organization and student organization at UW. We have mentors with over five years of experience supporting students across WA state apply to colleges.
Most people consider UW a fairly difficult school to get into. I had a 3.5 GPA but with a number of ap and honors classes and a 1420 SAT. If you aren't one of the better students in your school you unfortunately stand a good chance of being rejected.
There is a club fair on Red Square the weekend before classes. Most of the student organizations will be there set up in booths to show people what their clubs are about. Usually, the bigger the club, the more organized they are and the more opportunities you'll have.
Hey I’ll be applying fall of 2019, I have a 3.83 GPA and a 1400 SAT (790 math and 610 English) I’ll be applying for electrical engineering, do you think I can get in?
The food was just the same thing all the time which was boring and easy to get sick of. This would normally be okay if the food was actually healthy but it wasn't either haha. EFS and FIG I've never tried but they seem like a good way to make friends. My friends did it and I don't recall hearing any complaints other than the time they take.
Patrick Ly I did Early Fall Start and it was the best decision I made. Great way to meet people when you first get to college. Can't recommend it highly enough!
@@eder7468 im not sure, I would talk to a counselor or someone who understands that stuff. But I am curious, what grade are u in? Because if youre a junior then you might be able to skip to the second or third year of that language class.
it only exist if you are in a negative state of mind. If you are open to making friends you will be fine. I made a lot of friends and got involved in clubs. The experience is what YOU make it..
I donot think UW is diversity ...it is mainly full of Asian specially international students from China due their $$$$$.It is hard for local students to get into UW nowadays..
I think that's a bit unfound, considering literally every person I've met so far is from UW except ONE person who is from california like me, and I've already been to orientation

They're mostly under mind control and are targeted individuals so trusting anyone is scary.

It's very competitive from what I've heard. Lots of people go into it.

May I ask what you are studying at the UW?
And has that affected your overall opinion of the university?

For real though! Thank you so much for this video, I'm looking into doing my masters at UW and I live on the east coast.
Your pronunciation is perfect to learn English!
dream school!
So the thing about people in Seattle not being social...some people aren't social, for example me. But there are some people who are social too.
Would you recommend getting a bike to get to classes? Is the campus mostly flat? This is a great video :) I'm going to be a freshman
The campus isn't really flat. I would say you don't need a bike, unless you enjoy doing cardio before your classes.
The first one is so true! 😂😂👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
You seem like a cool guy. Nice video
What would you say is the average/ minimum GPA required to get accepted here?
Pretty sure its 3.9, for the average anyway
pretty sure you could go to a washington community college first, then hope your transfer is accepted
thanks a lot my dude! super helpful!

How much is the tuition? Thanks
What about the food makes you dislike it? Also did you do EFS or a FIG freshmen year or would you recommend incoming freshmen to do them?
