The Practical Radiation Oncology (PRO) Program is a two-day program specifically designed for the community practice radiation oncologist. This program is held Saturday and Sunday to allow doctors unable to leave their practice for an entire week the ability to attend ASTRO's Annual Meeting. Program content is curated to keep in mind the ins and outs of a community practice and will include disease site reviews, interactive case-based discussions, a coding update and a scientific overview.
If you would like to attend events on Saturday, you must register for those events separately; it will not count against your one-day registration. If you would like to attend more than one day of the meeting (exception of Saturday), you must register at the full conference rate.
Patients or advocates not affiliated with a national or international not-for-profit organization may also be eligible to register at the patient advocate rate, based on their advocacy role and experience.
*Please note that to receive this rate ASTRO will verify your registration before it is complete. If you end up not qualifying for the Patient Advocate rate, you will be given notice to pay the correct registration rate within two weeks or your registration will be canceled and fully refunded.
The Exhibit Hall Only registration will only be available after August 17 and on site. This includes access to the Exhibit Hall only during show hours Sunday, October 1 through Tuesday, October 3, and the Exhibit Hall Networking Reception on Monday.
ASTRO offers ASRT registered attendees a discounted rate for the in-person full conference registration package to attend the education and scientific program of the ASTRO Annual Meeting.

ASTRO offers SROA registered attendees a discounted rate for the in-person full conference registration package to attend the education and scientific program of the ASTRO Annual Meeting. To receive this discounted rate, you must provide the registration confirmation number received from SROA when you registered.
This registration does not include access to in-person ASTRO sessions or ticketed events. Spouse/Guest registrants are not eligible for continuing medical educational credits. Only in-person full conference attendees are eligible to register one Spouse/Guest.
The UW Astronomy department will not be asking applicants to submit General GRE scores during the 2023-2024 application cycle. We also do not ask for Physics GRE scores as part of our admissions process (see below).
All materials for each applicant (other than fees) are collected and filed in the office of the Astronomy Department. Every application in our office files must be complete to be guaranteed full consideration.Please be sure that your full name appears on every item you mail to us. Do NOT include social security numbers. The deadline for completion of the application for entrance in Fall 2024 is December 15 at 11:59PM PST. All application materials must be received by this date.
Applicants requesting an application fee waiver must complete their applications and submit their request by December 6. Please visit the official application page for details on qualifications and requirements for a fee waiver.
You may check the status of your application online by logging back into your application or by email. You may send inquiries to the Graduate Program Adviser (astroa...@uw.edu). The UW Astronomy Department conducts pre-admissions interviews. You will be notified if selected for an interview. Questions will focus on your research, preparation for graduate school, and interest in attending UW. Please note that not all admitted applicants will be interviewed prior to acceptance, and that an interview does not guarantee admissions.
The Department Chair normally starts sending out formal admission acceptance letters in mid March. Admission letters continue until the class of incoming students has been filled; please be patient. We aim to finalize all admissions decisions on or before April 15. The University of Washington is one of many institutions that signed a Council of Graduate Schools Resolution agreeing not to compel or pressure prospective graduate students to respond to our offers prior to April 15. The general spirit of the Resolution is that students should have an opportunity to consider more than one offer and should have until April 15 to do so, that institutions and students should be able to view acceptances in force after April 15 as binding, that everyone should know what the rules are, and that an offer by the institution and its acceptance by the student constitute an agreement which both expect to honor. For more information on this resolution please see
Applications are carefully reviewed by a small group of faculty whose membership changes annually. There is no magic formula or set of rigorous criteria that we use to rank the applications. The final selection of accepted students is made by a consensus of the selection committee using their best judgment.
We often find that the best 10-15 applications are very nearly equal, so the final selections of new students are unavoidably (and uncomfortably) marginal and difficult. Consequently, we cannot accept all of the deserving applicants.
What are the features of an application that help it to rise to the top? People on the admissions committee have given slightly different responses to this question through the years. Here are the most important considerations:
The UW Astronomy department has decided to drop the requirement of the Physics GRE for graduate admission, based on evidence that it does not correlate strongly with long term success, and following the American Astronomical Society recommendation. We hope that even small changes like this will help to create a more equitable admissions process, and a more just field. If you wish to submit evidence to demonstrate subject mastery that is not a required part of the application, please feel free to do so.
We aim for uniform excellence in the quality of admitted students. Such professional parity is necessary for building program coherence and a strong esprit de corps. At the same time we maintain diversity among graduate students, because students and faculty alike benefit from the various viewpoints brought into our program (see our page on diversity for more details). International applicants who meet the Graduate School requirements for English proficiency are considered without prejudice.
Since many excellent applicants come from small colleges where astronomy is not taught beyond the introductory level, we do not consider astronomy courses as any sort of a requirement for admission. (We teach all of the necessary content in the graduate program.) On the other hand, success in scientific research experience and/or advanced astronomy classes definitely strengthen an application.
For some applicants, we will schedule a pre-admissions interview. This interview is an opportunity for the committee to learn more about your research experience, interest in the UW graduate program, and your preparation for graduate school. An interview does not guarantee admission and in some cases we may admit applicants without an interview. You will be notified if an interview is requested.
The University of Washington reaffirms its policy of equal opportunity regardless of race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability, or status as a disabled veteran or Vietnam era veteran in accordance with University policy and applicable federal and state statutes and regulations.

The watch looks pretty good and the design and the ergonomics make it much easier to wear the watch. When you take tje watch in hour hand, you can feel that it is no cheap watch. Overall it's pretty good, my first PR watch. One thing though, the watch is luminent.
A historic first in our brand's journey, the Astro Collection's skeleton dial and open case back symbolize our commitment to innovative exploration in watchmaking. This remarkable addition provides a clear view into the movement's intricate workings, underscoring our commitment to transparency and craftsmanship. The carefully handcrafted and applied "AUTOMATIC" emblem underscores Astro Skeleton's mechanical origin.
Through the open case back, you can see the engine that powers your Astro Skeleton. This includes the synchronized motion of gears, springs, the balance wheel's oscillation, the escapement's precision, and the winding of the mainspring. The case back is engraved with the powerful Latin motto "Per Aspera Ad Astra" - translating to "through hardship to the stars" - serving as an inspirational daily reminder. It's a philosophy that's not just etched into the watch but lives on your wrist, inspiring you to reach for the stars in all your endeavors.
