Academic achievement is the most significant factor in the application review.
Preparation for major, nature and quality of transferable course work, grade trends, multicultural experience, special talent, and individual strengths are also considered. Including major prerequisite course work along with English composition, math, and science in your transfer program will strengthen your application for admission. Number of available enrollment spaces and distribution of Western's current students may also impact the admission decision. Washington state residents transferring directly from a Washington state community college may receive admission priority. Transfer students with fewer than transferable 40 credits completed at the time of application must also submit official high school transcripts and ACT or SAT scores.
