Hi! It’s my first term this fall at UW transferring from a CC. I’m commuting to UW from Renton and I’m trying to keep my job part time. My schedule is kinda shit since there was barely anything left during my registration. I did register for 17 credits total however I’m debating dropping a class leaving me at 12 credits in order to have Tuesdays and Thursdays off to work. Is it normal for transfer students to take less credits their first term? I do plan on taking summer courses next summer for financial reasons anyways so I don’t think I would fall behind. I’m probably overthinking but it would be nice to hear what other transfer students first terms looked like?

I just broke up with my boyfriend of over a year. I’ve always known I’ve struggled with staying in relationships but this one has been the longest and most meaningful. I’m starting to realize I definitely have avoidant attachment. I tend to run away when I feel too comfortable and cut things off early out of fear that it will end outside of my control. Instead of expressing my issues and emotions I bottle them up and build up false resentment against the person I love.

Every breakup before this I moved on pretty quickly but this one is different. I feel incomplete and so fucking depressed. I feel like I made a huge mistake. I feel like I let the most special person in my life go out of irrational fear without giving him a chance to work through the issues I had. I just dumped everything on him and walked out. I know he’s so fucking hurt and I don’t want to hurt him more but every bone in my body is telling me I need to at least try to mend this.

Is this just classic post breakup delusions and loneliness or is there actually a chance I could salvage this. And yeah I 100% need therapy.

So I just applied for UW Bothell as a transfer as a back up if I don’t get into UW Seattle. I sent transcripts from my current cc, my previous university, and AP scores all of which I sent on the same day. For whatever reason my previous university’s transcript processed no problem but my portal still says I haven’t sent my cc’s transcript and AP scores and it’s been almost 2 weeks.

I was curious if anyone else had delays with their transcripts uploading when they applied? Also has me stressing that UW Seattle may have not received those transcripts when I sent them either. Is there anyway to confirm what they’ve received as there isn’t a checklist in Seattle’s portal?

Ahhh this wait is killing me. I’m a Washington CC transfer who applied with the intended major of psychology although I know can’t apply to the major until my first term (I think that’s how it works 😅).

Is anyone else waiting who’s intending to apply into the psychology department? I tried that unofficial transcript hack but it says I’m not a current student at UW (hopefully that doesn’t mean anything as of right now).

I applied with a 4.0 gpa, 100 credits, and all my psych prerequisites done so I’m really hoping I have a fighting chance.
