Yes, a large percentage of UV can pass through thin window glass. Glass can be designed via its thickness and chemical makeup to restrict UV penetration.

Can UV light pass through window glass?
Yes, It can.....
Can ultraviolet light pass through glass?
Ultraviolet light can pass through glass, but the amount and type of UV (eg UVA, UVB etc) transmitted depends on the type and thickness of the glass, any coatings and laminates.
Does UV light pass through plastic?
yes
Does glass allow microwaves to pass through them?
Yes, microwaves will pass through plain glass.
What type of glass allows some light to pass through it?
A Transparent glass !!

Can uv rays pass through clothing?
Yes, they can. They can easily pass through clothing.
Can UVR go through glass or water or walls?
UVR is not able to penetrate opaque surfaces like walls, however, certain surfaces such as glass may allow UV radiation to penetrate depending on how the glass has been treated. Water allows UV to pass through but only to a certain depth where it will get absorbed in within the water molecules.
Does UV light pass through plastic?
yes
Does glass allow microwaves to pass through them?
Yes, microwaves will pass through plain glass.
Can magnetism pass through glass?
Yes, it can pass through glass and mirror and other things made up of glass.
Can electricety pass through Glass?
Glass is an insulator, but no material is a perfect insulator. At a high enough potential, electricity can in fact pass through glass.
What causes sunlight to pass through the upper atmosphere?
Sunlight can pass through atmosphere. But not the part containing UV rays.
How will we see through glass?
Since glass allows the light to pass through
Can you be exposed to UV ray inside of a building through windows?
Yes and no, it mostly depends on the type of glass. Generally I'd say no for the most part; considering when you get transistion lenses (reactive to UV) they don't tend to turn even the slightest black when inside a car or in a building; even when directly exposed to light. But I don't doubt there are certain types of glass (or glass thicknesses) that would permit the rays to pass through.
What effect does uv light have on plastics?
No, only fused silica or quartz will transmit UV light.
