我昨天正好上了华盛顿大学的网站，并且看了它的录取标准。华盛顿大学的最低录取标准（对外国学生）是这样的：TOEFL 76 分（网考）或雅思6分。但是华盛顿大学的这个录取是附有条件的，它要求被录取并决定去华盛顿大学就读的新生必需额外付费参加一系列的Academic English Program (AEP) 课程，除非这些新生在正式开学（上课）之前能提供TOEFL 92 分（网考）或雅思7分的成绩，或是你的SAT中的Critical Reading 或Writing任一项能达到490分，或是你的ACT成绩达到21分，或是你能在华盛顿大学的screening test 中过关等。
因此，华盛顿大学的第一个录取标准实际上相当于其他大学的条件录取，只不过它给你提供一段录取和开学之间的缓冲时间（大约9个月），给你一个自学通过的机会，否则你只有额外付费在华盛顿大学内先学习提高英文了；不难理解，华盛顿大学的第二个录取标准实际上相当于其他大学的无条件录取。
