CV Group Review session on June 23
On the same day as the above meeting, June 23, Career Advising will offer an additional CV Group Review session, knowing that you will be on Integration Week and will not have clinical rotations this week. The half-hour session will start at 11 a.m. AK, noon PT and 1 p.m. MT. The career advisors can accommodate up to 20 students at this session, double what they normally do. This is a great time to get your CV polished so that when your letter of recommendation (LOR) writers ask for it, you are ready to go!
Before attending a session utilize the resources and guidance provided on the Career Advising CV website.
Information for students in clinical clerkships during Summer 2023
This is for students taking clinical clerkships during Summer Quarter 2023, anytime between June 26 and Sept. 15, 2023.
Action required: Log in to MyUW to verify your registration for CONJ 699 for Summer Quarter 2023
Deadline: 3 p.m. AK, 4 p.m. PT and 5 p.m. MT on Thursday, June 22, 2024.
What’s at stake:
- If you are not registered but should be: You will not be enrolled in courses for the Summer 2023 quarter, which begins on Monday, June 26. Without registering, you will not receive credit for the courses, they will not appear on your transcript, and you will not be on track to graduate.
- If you are registered but should not be: You will be charged for courses you do not attend and may receive a failing grade.
Here’s why we’re asking you to do this:
The school has registered students for Summer quarter clerkships with the UW Office of the University Registrar. If you are taking SOM clinical courses during the Summer quarter, it is your responsibility to verify that you are registered correctly for CONJ 699. To verify your registration, log in to MyUW and look for CONJ 699 on your schedule for Summer 2023. Follow any prompts that the University indicates.
Let the school know immediately at somreg@uw.edu if you are not registered for this course, but should be, or if you are registered, but should not be.
DO NOT adjust your CONJ 699 registration in MyUW – instead, contact the team at somreg@uw.edu.
We’re sooooo close to achieving 60 percent in survey participation
Here is a message from Sara Kim, Ph.D., associate dean for Educational Quality Improvement:
We are short of our weekly goal of 60 percent by just 1 percentage point (See graph below)! I would like to thank Seattle and Idaho students who took the time to complete the survey over the past week. We know this is a very busy time for you and we would love to see your class response rate reaching at least 70 percent by June 9. Thank you so much for contributing your voice to the survey.
For those who started the survey, you can return to the same link and pick up where you left off. The customized survey link is emailed to you by eqi@uw.edu every Tuesday afternoon.
Here are the incentives we are offering through a raffle at the end of the survey period in early June:
- 1 Amazon Kindle ($100)
- 2 Amazon Fire Tablets ($60)
- 2 Portable Chargers ($50)
- 1 pair of Wireless Earbuds ($50)
- 3 Portable Stanley Adventure Travel Tumblers ($30)
Career Advising Student Advisory Board – Tip of the Month
Now is a great time to start writing your personal statement! It is nice to have it done early so you know your narrative well when asked about it on your rotations in your desired field. You’ll also be able to give it to your letter writers so they get to know you better. They may even offer feedback! Of course, you’ll add more to your personal statement after your summer rotations, but get started here when you get a chance.
