With a 43% acceptance rate, University of Washington is comparatively quite hard to get in for international students. According to an unofficial source, the university has a relatively strict admissions policy and takes a holistic approach that takes into account both academic and non-academic factors. In addition to academic performance, the university prioritizes involvement in extracurricular activities, rigor of secondary school record, academic GPA, and application essay during admission. To increase their chances of being selected, students must aim for high academic standing and participate in other pertinent activities.
