The University of Washington - Seattle
UWash-Seattle says:
One reason we do not provide avg test score or GPA statistics to this website or any other is that students often think of these as minimums. Although a large public flagship university with over 15,000 applicants each fall, the UW prides itself in using required essays and other additional information in a comprehensive review process that allows to consider students much like a typical small college might. No, we can't admit everyone, but we admit a lot of students with great potential, not just great transcripts.

I was the valedictorian, had an 800 Math SAT, the two year leader of my high school's programming club, and was several years ahead in math (I had completed multivariate calculus and linear algebra at a community college when I applied). My resume after graduating was honestly worse, and I struggled to find a job. Seriously, if interested in CS go to another college or apply to an apprenticeship program.
