 " I wouldn't recommend UW and the reason why is because of the competitive major system and harsh grading scales. If you don't get into a major from high school, you have to apply after you've finished all of the prerequisite courses in college. Many majors require difficult "weed-out courses" as prerequisites. These classes are graded on a curve targeting a 2.7 GPA, making it very challenging to earn high marks and get accepted into certain competitive majors. "

 " I am a FT remote student. I have found that all my classes have been very diverse. Since this is a Master's program, every class has included group work. So far all my classes have weighed the group work the most - making it about 60% of your grade. "

 " UW is a great school with excellent faculty, dedicated students, and great resources. I am a masters student in HCDE, which is a more professionally oriented program. We have a lot of professional events such as portfolio reviews, lectures on topics like storytelling in UX, whiteboarding sessions, and more. "

 " I think the school is pretty decent, the computer science program is very strong and the faculty are obviously very passionate in their own work and also teaching it to others. I think the food options are good, but the workers there are pretty understaffed. "
