Graduate Application
To apply, please submit a Graduate Admissions application (linked above), a statement of objectives, three letters of recommendation from instructors or other individuals who can evaluate your potential for graduate study, an official transcript from each college/university attended. In addition, please submit a portfolio of 12-20 images of recent work as slides or CD and a self-addressed, stamped envelope for return of slides, to the Grad Studies office on campus.
The Online Electronic Catalog (OEC) is the university's official compilation for all curriculum. The OEC serves as the basis for major, minor, specialization, certificate, and program requirements for the academic year. For current policy and curriculum requirements refer to the CWU online catalog at http://www.cwu.edu/~catalogs. You may choose the catalog that is appropriate for your program requirements, based on the quarter that you were accepted into your program. Some students may be using more than one catalog to meet general education and major requirements.
A student should expect to meet the specific requirements of the departments listed in the OEC that is current at the time he or she is accepted by the department into the major or minor program. Graduate students admitted to the master's degree program may use the catalog they are admitted under or the current one. A student should expect to complete general education requirements as listed in the OEC current at the time of first enrollment at either Central or a community college in the state of Washington provided he or she transfers directly to CWU from the community college and has not attended another four-year institution. |
