Let's Get Things Started
Build on your momentum.
Western isn’t a place where you just show up for classes, learn a few things and get a job that bores you. That’s for normal schools.
Through close relationships with professors, a community atmosphere and a reputation for academic excellence, we help people find their purpose. And we inspire them to pursue that purpose with everything they’ve got. We bring together those who want to change the world, with the people who are changing it.
The Fall and Summer Quarter Transfer Application Date is March 1.
Guaranteed Transfer Admission
Any transfer student who completes a transferable associate degree at Peninsula College or Olympic College, and meets the eligibility requirements, is guaranteed admission to Western Washington University.
