Ready to start your journey toward a college education? We’re glad you’re considering a degree or certificate at Washington State. Anyone who is a graduate of an accredited high school or has passed the GED examination is eligible for admission as a degree-seeking student.

Follow the steps below to enroll at WSCO as a degree-seeking student.

  1. Complete our free application for admission. If you’re considering a health program, you must also complete the application packet for the program of your choice. View health program application requirements.

Homeschool students must also submit transcripts. A transcript template is available from How to Homeschool Today. Transcripts may also be hand-delivered in a sealed envelope from the high school.
    • Official high school equivalency transcripts (such as GED records) should be sent through DiplomaSender to admissions@wscc.edu.
    • Official college transcripts must be sent directly from the previous institution to the WSCO Records Office for evaluation.
