UW Tacoma guarantees general admission to Washington state residents who earn an approved transfer degree at a Washington state community college with at least a 2.75 GPA and meet admission requirements. To qualify for guaranteed admission, you must:
The Direct Transfer Agreement (DTA) ensures admission only to pre-major status but does not promise admission to any school or program nor to any particular major within the university. Additional program or university requirements must be met for completion of a baccaulaureate degree. Students are responsible for checking specific program requirements.
You may apply to a school or program at the same time you apply to the university or in a later quarter. Whenever you choose to apply to a school or program, you must meet the program's application deadline and admission requirements. Admission to some programs is selective and not all qualified students will be accepted.
