Undergraduate admission to Washington University is characterized by the Carnegie Foundation and U.S. News & World Report as "most selective". [9] [107] The Princeton Review, in its 2020 edition, gave the university an admissions selectivity rating of 99 out of 99. [108]
The College of Arts and Sciences is the central undergraduate unit of the university with 387 tenured and tenure-track faculty, 158 non-tenure track faculty (including lecturers, artists-in-residence, and visiting faculty), and 70 research scientists, serving about 4,000 undergraduates in 40 academic departments and programs divided into divisions of Humanities, Social Sciences, Natural ...
At Olin, undergraduate students are admitted directly into the BSBA program as freshmen. Inter-division transfers are allowed for students who are in good standing with their current division, can complete the BSBA requirements within 4 years, have completed 2 or more core professional business courses for credit, have completed Calculus II for credit, and have a minimum 3.5 GPA.
Washington University finished in 2021 a $360 million campus transformation project which included the construction of two new McKelvey buildings: Henry A. and Elvira H. Jubel Hall, which houses the Department of Mechanical Engineering & Materials Science, and James M. McKelvey, Sr. Hall, which houses the Department of Computer Science ...
Transfer admissions in the United States refers to college students changing universities during their college years. While estimates of transfer activity vary considerably, the consensus view is that it is substantial and increasing, [1] although media coverage of student transfers is generally less than coverage of the high school to college transition.
The Computer Science Group was created in March 1967 as a graduate program under the Graduate School. In 1973, the Department of Computer Science was established as an inter-college unit between the College of Arts & Sciences and the College of Engineering. An undergraduate major started accepting students in the 1975–76 academic year.
Ivy-Plus admissions rates vary with the income of the students' parents, with the acceptance rate of the top 0.1% income percentile being almost twice as much as other students. [234] While many "elite" colleges intend to improve socioeconomic diversity by admitting poorer students, they may have economic incentives not to do so.
