UW in the High School - Student Eligibility

“

UW in the High School was a positive experience that I would recommend to anyone. It not only gave me a challenge, but it helped me grow as a student. I felt a part of the great experience that the University of Washington has to offer.

STUDENT ELIGIBILITY

Courses offered through UWHS are official UW courses and therefore demand considerable work outside of the classroom. Successful students have discipline and are willing to dedicate more time than the typical high school course demands. They should have a B+ average in courses in the subject area or have permission of their instructor.

In addition, half of the UW courses offered through UWHS have prerequisites that the student must meet in order to enroll. These can be met by successfully completing an equivalent high school course. This table lists all courses with prerequisites.
