APPLY TO THE POLITICAL SCIENCE MAJOR
Minimum admission requirements for the major are:
- Three political science introductory courses (POL S 101, 201, 202, 203, 204 or approved equivalent). Students may apply when they have completed at least two intro courses and are enrolled in and attending the third course.
- Minimum grades of 2.0 in each political science introductory course used towards admission.
- Minimum 2.0 cumulative GPA.
Make an appointment to consult with a Political Science Adviser or email polsadvc@uw.edu to determine when you are eligible to apply to the major if:
- you have more than one introductory course in progress (1 completed, last 2 intro courses in progress), or
- your grade in an introductory course is below 2.0.
Political Science admits students to the major each quarter. Students who miss this application deadline may apply for the next cycle.
