  • File The Graduate School’s online application by the closing dates
  • Submit official transcripts in duplicate of your work done at other institutions while not enrolled at the University of Washington
  • Pay the required $50 (U.S.) fee
You must also submit a letter of explanation to the Evans School before the due dates below in order for us to review your readmission application.
