If you have attended a high school, college, university or post-secondary school outside of the U.S. we will need official transcripts from that school, along with a word-for-word English translation if the transcript is not in English. If we are not able to accurately evaluate those transcripts we reserve the right to require a course-by-course evaluation from AACRAO or a NACES-approved educational credentialing service such as WES or FIS.

You are required to complete a Personal Statement as part of your application. This is a critical part of your application, both for admission and scholarship consideration. Content, as well as the form, spelling, grammar, and punctuation, will be considered. When you write your personal statement, tell us about the aspects of your life that are not apparent from your academic record. First-year applicants will choose one of the following prompts (400-600 words): 1. Tell us a story from your life, describing an experience that either demonstrates your character or helped to shape it. OR 2. Describe a time when you made a meaningful contribution to others in which the greater good was your focus. Discuss the challenges and rewards of making your contribution. OR 3. An essay topic of your choice. If you have written another admissions essay that captures what you want the UW Tacoma Admissions Committee to know about, feel free to share it with us. Be sure to include the topic or question you answered.
