WUE program
November 6th 2007 15:00
Since this program has been in quite a few of the colleges I've covered in the College Lists series I decided it needed it's own post to link to just in case not everyone reads every single post in this series.
First off, WUE stands for Western Undergraduate Exchange.
Humboldt State has a page specifically for this program that I feel explains it very well.
From their page: "WUE is a state exchange program with participants from Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. Students are able to attend participating public colleges or universities in the se states at a significantly reduced cost."
That means if you live in one of those states and want to attend a public university in another of the states listed you can get a reduced tuition rate. Check the specific school's financial aid page for information on the reduced rate. (Not all schools have the same reduction since they don't all charge the same in tuition either). If you don't see it on a school's page, but believe they should have this program, your best bet is to call or email that school's financial aid office.
You should also check how you can be in the program. For instance, according to Humboldt's page (under "how do I apply?"), they say "You will automatically receive the WUE award upon admission to HSU." All schools may not be the same way, so be sure to ask.
