Visit
Experience for yourself the sights, sounds, and life of U-Dub. It's a small town of 60,000, a Collegiate Gothic oasis in the city, a rain-fed botanical haven with 400 species of trees. Does it feel like home?
Words and pictures will never tell the whole story. If you are thinking the UW might be the place for you, visiting is an important step in your admissions journey.
Plan your day on campus to meet your needs and interests. You can spend an hour with us or the whole day. We offer campus tours followed by a freshman information session, tours of residential life, programs just for transfer students, and list of classes you're welcome to visit. Choose the option that's right for you.
