www.wiche.edu/wue
What is WUE?
WUE is the Western Undergraduate Exchange, a program coordinated by the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE). Through WUE,
students in western states may enroll in participating two-year and four-year public college programs at a reduced tuition level: up to 150 percent of the institu-
tion’s regular resident tuition. In all cases, WUE tuition is considerably less than nonresident tuition.
Which States Participate?
For academic year 2017-2018, resident students from the following states may participate if they meet eligibility requirements:
NOTE: Residents of Hawaii may enroll as WUE students in four-year programs only.
Alaska Colorado Montana North Dakota Utah
Arizona Hawaii Nevada Oregon Washington
California Idaho New Mexico South Dakota Wyoming
Programs Available
Virtually all undergraduate fields are available to WUE students at one or more of the participating colleges and universities. Some institutions have opened
their entire curriculum on a space-available or first-come, first-served basis. Others offer only designated programs at the discounted WUE rate.
To learn of the wide array of programs available, consult WUE Online, our new searchable database, located at www.wiche.edu/wue. For additional
details, follow the links to the receiving institutions’ websites.
Eligibility
Many institutions require evidence of academic performance, such as ACT/SAT test scores or high school GPA, or place other conditions on WUE enroll-
ment. Consult your high school counselor or WUE Online for details.
Application and Admission
Apply directly to the institution(s) of your choice for admission and WUE tuition status. Mark prominently on the application form that you seek admission as
a WUE student.
