Transfer Students

<p>While some students enter the UW as freshmen, others arrive as transfer students after doing coursework at other colleges. The School regularly accepts transfer students who want to study art, art history, or design. We asked three who just finished their first quarter to write about their experience here.</p>

Dani Elenga Art Scholarship

<p>The Dani Elenga Art Scholarship is one of the newest scholarships in the School, and it is specifically for Painting + Drawing students. It was established in memory of alum Dani Elenga who tragically died in her 40s after an automobile accident in 2009. Art was important and meaningful for her, and it is the hope of her family and friends that this scholarship will extend Elenga's deep love of art and painting by facilitating aspiring students in the study of art.
