Application Fee

The $60 application fee is nonrefundable and must be submitted each time you apply. It cannot be transferred to another quarter, to another campus of the UW, or to another student.

Fee Waivers

For students with confirmed financial hardship, the University of Washington provides a waiver of the $60 application fee.

• If you apply online, the fee waiver request is embedded in the application.

• If you apply using the PDF or paper version of the application, request a fee waiver by writing a letter of explanation to the Office of Admissions and include documentation showing the need for a fee waiver. Attach the letter and documentation to the rest of your application file.

Receiving a fee waiver will have no bearing whatsoever on the review of your application for admission, nor will the information provided be released to anyone for any purpose.
