Dear CEE Students,

The University of Washington has established a Transportation Visioning Committee as part of their ongoing efforts to enhance transportation programs on campus. Given the pivotal role of transportation in global sustainability, economic growth, and the future careers of CEE students, the committee members are keen to incorporate student insights into shaping the future of transportation education at UW.

To this end, the committee has developed a survey that will take approximately 8-10 minutes to complete. They would greatly appreciate it if you could participate. The deadline for responses is 11:59 PM on June 3, 2024.

S/NS Grading Option Change Process

Graduating spring 2024?

For those of you graduating at the end of the quarter, congratulations!

While spring quarter grades are due at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, June 11, and posted to transcripts the following day, it may take several weeks once the quarter has ended for your degree to be granted and posted to your transcript.

Students who have completed all requirements to graduate will get an email confirming their official graduation status once their degree is granted. This email will have the subject “University of Washington Notification of Degree Posting: Next Steps.” It will be sent from registra@uw.edu to your uw.edu email address. If you haven’t already done so, be sure to set up email forwarding from your UW email account, as you will lose access to your UW email in the months following your last quarter of registration.
