Admissions Process

Competitive Honors applicants clearly demonstrate a passion for challenging themselves in the classroom. All applications completed by the regular deadline will be thoroughly reviewed, and applications completed by the priority deadline will receive priority consideration.

The Honors College uses rolling admissions to evaluate and admit students as applications are received. While uncommon, we may fill our cohort prior to the regular admissions deadline, so it is advised to apply early.

We accept applications from high school students (including direct transfer (DTA) Running Start students), transfer students from other colleges and universities, and current WWU students.

Applicant Type

If you earned college credit while still completing high school requirements, such as through the Running Start program, you are considered a First-Year Student.

If you have attempted college credit after graduating from high school or earning your GED, you are considered a Transfer Student.

If you are enrolled at Western, as in actively taking courses, you are considered a Current Student.
