The building really wasn't as bad as I thought, and the students and faculty members there were all very friendly. The level of competition between students depends on the class; the 2nd year student who took us on the tour said that there wasn't really any competition in her class.
They have great National Board results, and you could apply for in-state after one year. Plus Seattle is a great city
What impressed you negatively?
Nothing serious, just that there are on average only 17 female students out of 55, and not very diverse. But this is just a personal thing; I like 50-50 and diversity.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Nothing really
What are your general comments?
I like the school very much. They only have about 2 or 3 seats for out-of-staters, so I'm not getting my hopes up. But if by some miracle they accept me, I will definitely go there.
