"As one of the Founders and as a member of WGU’s Board of Trustees since the university’s inception, I highly recommend WGU Washington as a quality institution. This new university provides the state of Washington with another quality higher education alternative—one that takes advantage of 21st century technology and a new learning approach designed to address the needs of working adults."
—Dr. Samuel H. Smith
President Emeritus, Washington State University
"WGU has been the perfect solution for me as it is very affordable, flexible, and responsive to my needs with their extensive mentor system. I have received excellent support at every turn and with this help I expect to graduate in 2 years instead of the usual 4 while still being able to provide for my family."
—Scott Fladgard
College of Business Student, Kingston, WA
