What is the optional diversity statement?
Consistent with our goal of enhancing the intellectual and social enrichment of the University community, the University of Washington and the Department actively seek and welcome students from diverse backgrounds. If you wish to have factors such as varied cultural experiences, or an educational or socio-economically disadvantaged background included in the review of your application, write a brief statement not to exceed one page. The statement should address the ways those experiences have affected the development of your special interests, career plans, and future goals, and how you may have overcome various obstacles. See “How to Add Text Document On-line”.
