[Mathmajors] MATH Registration Info - WIN 2026

[Math & ACMS Student Services Office via Mathmajors]

Hello Math Majors,

Below you will find important information about graduating applications, graduating senior priority (GSP), winter quarter course offerings, and registration tips.

Are you planning to graduate summer quarter 2026 or sooner?  If yes and you haven't applied for graduation, visit https://math.washington.edu/graduation-commencement-information. To have GSP for spring quarter 2026<https://registrar.washington.edu/register/date/#gsp>, ACMS majors must request their graduation application no later than Thursday, JAN 22, 2026.

IMPORTANT!  S/NS Grade Change Policy:  The petition policy and process for students to request a grade change from an S/NS to a numeric grade after the quarter ends is currently under review. We are advising our majors not to assume that an S/NS grade change petition will be approved in the current or future quarter.
