So i got into grad school at UW at one of their evening master’s programs. I was waitlisted at a different program there last year, and it was unlikely I would get in even if I did reapply later unless something drastically changed in my academic life. It’s funny in that I did not actually apply to the specific program, but they invited me in anyway. Cynically, I think they did not have enough candidates for various reasons (cost, the program location, the program is new etc.), but why look a gift horse in the mouth.
