University of Washington-Seattle Campus (UW) Campus

Thanks so much for coming on this tour with me, I had lots of fun exploring my campus and filming everything!! I hope you'll look into applying to UW and make sure to stop procrastinating those essays! Bye!! xoxo

On our way to Odegaard Undergraduate Library (Or, as the students call it "Ode"), we walk through Red Square. While walking through Red Square, the hub and meeting of several buildings, we encounter a couple campus events happening and meet some other students!

On our way to Drumheller, we take a detour through Mary Gates Hall. In this building, you can find general advising, the Disability Resource center for Students (DRS). We also run into another friend! What a great day to take you on this tour and run into friends!

Join Carson on a sunny walk through the Quad.

The Rainier Vista one of my favorite things about campus, especially on a sunny spring day because it has a view of the cherry blossoms, fountain, and mt. Rainier! The fountain is called Drumheller Fountain and you can actually feel the sprays from a ways away. There's always people here taking pictures because it's such a beautiful view!

Suzzallo Library is a must-see when touring campus. It's nickname is the "Harry Potter Library" because it's architectural features are clearly straight out of the movie. The reading room is a great place to study of you are looking for a nice quiet area.

Carson shows you around part of the HUB, located between Suzzallo Library and Hall Health. This has plenty seating areas, food, the bookstore, ATMs, a gaming area and a ton more!

Located in Lander in West Campus is the handy Lander Desk. This is where students come to pick up packages and get a replacement key if they get locked out of their room!

Carson shows a personal favorite place to relax on campus, the President’s Garden.

Here I answer some frequently asked questions! I talk about the campus size and what it's like going to such a big school, as well as the admissions process! UW is a competitive school to get into so I would recommend giving yourself enough time to have your essays looked over by multiple people. I would also recommend taking a SAT or ACT prep course if at all possible! I highly encourage everyone to take AP classes (or the equivalent at your school) and check which AP credits will transfer over to UW! I came into the year with a good amount of credits, making me a Sophomore for winter quarter in credits. It helps a lot with my goal of double majoring and still graduating in 4 years!

Join Carson as she walks through the Drumheller Fountain area and points out a few buildings on main campus.

Red Square is home to many of the well-known buildings. Including Kane Hall, Odegarrd Library, and Suzzallo Library. You will often find club booths, club fairs, protests, and food trucks out and about in Red Square.

The Quad can get really crowded. Finding a place to study and also be outdoors can be a challenge. Try grabbing a seat at the terrace outside of Alder Hall!

I'm only starting out my freshman year here so I'm not as familiar with many academic buildings yet. So, my roommate, Emma, takes us on a tour of Bagley Hall (aka the chemistry building). There are big lecture halls, as well as classrooms and labs here. They have lockers to put all of your goggles and lab coats for the labs! I have not had a class here but if you are going through the chem series you will probably have many here!
