One of the many services that the OSDI provides to the diverse student populations begins before they are admitted to the College of Education.
Application Bootcamp
As a service to prospective applicants, the OSDI assists students to navigate the application process by:
-
Providing pre-application consultations (via emails, phone calls, and application boot camp)
-
Helping prospective students define their academic goals and research interests
-
Connecting prospective students with current students to aid in understanding their areas of interest
Are you ready to apply but would like some guidance on your goal statements? Our Application Boot camp provides an overview of important things to know when applying. You can have your statement reviewed by our Diversity Ambassadors (DAs) who are current students in the College. We will also be discussing the importance of identifying and connecting with faculty, funding options, and how to make your application stronger. Application bootcamps are held during late summer and in the fall. Check the COE Calendar to learn the date.
***Our Online 2019 Fall Application Bootcamp is happening on Friday, October 11th from 5:00pm-7:00pm PST. ***
*** Our On-site 2019 Fall Application Bootcamp is happening on Monday, November 18th from 6:00pm-8:00pm PST. ***
Important: If you cannot attend the fall application bootcamp because you are outside of the Seattle area or the United States and would also like assistance with your application, we can arrange a time to help you via e-mail, Skype or Google Hangout. Please e-mail us osdi@uw.edu.

We assist students in learning more about the College of Education, informing them about our various undergraduate, graduate and professional degree programs, act as a liaison in making connections with current students and faculty, as well as aid students with their applications.
