Admissions Overview
Eastern Washington University has an open admission policy with a 96.12% acceptance rate. This means nearly every applicant who meets basic requirements gets in. The school prioritizes access over exclusivity, making it an excellent choice for students who may not have stellar high school records but are ready to work hard in college. EWU looks for students who want to be part of a tight-knit community where professors know your name despite the 20:1 student-faculty ratio. The university particularly values students interested in health sciences, education, or athletics, given its strong programs in these areas and Division I Big Sky Conference sports teams.
