Accept your offer
To accept, complete both steps below. Please note that we have two payments required to join the program, a $250 Enrollment Confirmation Deposit, and a $1000 Orientation Fee. These payments are made separately, and both are required to secure your spot in the class. The Enrollment Confirmation Deposit and Orientation Fee are non-refundable if you later elect to not enter the program.
To Pay the Enrollment Confirmation Deposit (ECD), return to the Graduate Application portal and follow the steps for accepting your offer.
Log in to the Application Status page
Note: We highly recommend that you electronically save or print a copy of your enrollment confirmation deposit for your records.
In order to complete this payment you will be required to log in using your recently created UW NetID and password. If you encounter any issues while attempting to make your payment, please contact us at [email protected] for assistance.
Pay The Orientation Fee by Credit Card
Note: We highly recommend that you electronically save or print a copy of your enrollment confirmation deposit for your records.
Announcements and program updates from Foster will come through MyMBA and/or UW email. MyMBA will help you stay ahead of important academic, student life, and event registration deadlines as you prepare for the Foster MBA. Because all updates from UW and Foster will come via MyMBA and/or through your UW email, be sure to set up email forwarding.
Once you accept your offer and we receive both your enrollment confirmation deposit and orientation fee payment, we will reach out to you via email to confirm receipt and enrollment in the Class of 2028. Then, we’ll send instructions on how to access MyMBA to the email you provided on your application.
Before you will be eligible to start classes in autumn, there are many action items required to finalize your enrollment as a new student. Please log in to your Graduate Application Account now and review all “Action Items” listed on your application status page, and put deadlines on your calendar. New students are required to submit official transcripts, immunization records, and complete new student trainings and tasks prior to the start of Autumn quarter. Allow plenty of time to complete these important items.
MBA Program Launch (Orientation)
All new students are expected on campus for MBA Program Launch, plan to be ready to start your MBA journey by the first week of September. Portions of MBA Launch are degree requirements, and all components set students up for academic and professional success. The expected orientation schedule is as follows:
- Evening MBA Program Orientation: September 6 and 7 from 8 am – 5 pm (mandatory)
- Accounting Jumpstart: September 15 and 16 from 6-9 pm (mandatory)
- MGMT 510 – Your First Core Curriculum Courses: September 19, 20, and 21 from 8 am – 5 pm (mandatory)
- First Day of Autumn Quarter Classes: Wednesday, September 24, 2025
It’s important to note the Evening MBA Program’s academic calendar slightly differs from the University of Washington’s academic calendar. More information will be shared during the required Incoming Student webinars and on the MyMBA site.
Decline Your Offer
While we certainly hope you are joining Foster, if you wish to decline your offer of admission, we ask that you communicate this to us by the enrollment confirmation deadline. Please return to the UW Graduate Admissions Application portal, and upon logging in take the steps to decline your offer. You will be prompted to fill out a survey regarding your decision to decline your admissions to the University of Washington. While completely optional, we hope you will consider taking a few minutes to complete the survey to share feedback with the Foster MBA Admissions team about your experience with our program, staff, and students. Your feedback is valued and critical to us to help us review ways we can improve in the future. We appreciate you taking the time to complete the decline survey and wish you all the best at the MBA program and university you have selected.
