Enrollment Goals & Priorities
The University is committed to the following transfer goals and priorities to benefit students from Washington’s community and technical colleges.
- The University of Washington Seattle will dedicate at least 30% of the spaces available annually for new undergraduates to Washington community college transfer students.
- Among community college transfer students, the highest admission priority will be given to those with academic associate degrees and those with 90 transferable credits taken in preparation for a professional academic major. Applicants with fewer than 90 credits may also be admitted when early transfer is advisable, but the number of such transfers will remain small.
- The University accepts applicants who have completed fewer than 40 quarter credits (slightly less than one year of college) at the time of application. However, admission for these applicants is competitive and, due to enrollment pressures, priority is low.
