Beginning college is simultaneously exciting and stressful; and due to its size, the University of Washington may seem complex and overwhelming. At the Office of First Year Programs, we are fully aware of these issues. We recognize your commitment to helping your son or daughter make a successful transition to college life, and we’re here to help you support them.
