Washington State has competitive admissions policies. Students who are successfully enrolled demonstrate a 3.4 GPA or better, an above average score on the SAT or ACT, and a well written personal statement. An advanced coursework taken in high school will give applicants a much-needed edge. All of these factors are not weighed equally or consistently, but rather in light of a particular student’s abilities and how they might fit into the University community.
