Holistic Student Profile

Each student enrolling in UW Flexible Option is provided with academic guidance and coaching that is tailored to meet his or her individual needs. To assist our admissions teams and your future Success Coach in preparing the best path for you, please complete our Holistic Student Profile.

As you work through this brief survey, it is important that you be as truthful as possible with your responses. A good understanding of your academic and professional background and how you best learn is a key component to establishing an effective Individualized Learning Plan, or ILP.
