Admissions & Registration

 
As of fall 2008, the decision has been made to discontinue the Bachelor of Arts in Leadership and Professional Studies.

This decision was not driven by concern for the quality of the degree, but rather by the need to shift resources to areas that have a greater potential for growth on the Spokane campus, particularly in the health and biomedical sciences.

Current students will be allowed to complete the degree if they remain continuously registered for the next four semesters through Spring 2010, but no new students are being admitted.


ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

Acceptance into the BA in Professional Development requires an Associate of Arts (AA) degree from a community college or completion of lower-division coursework at WSU Pullman or another accredited institution.

The AA degree will "direct transfer" as 60 credits, including the completion of all lower-division general education requirements. Your transfer transcripts will be reviewed by faculty to ensure you're ready to enter into the upper-division coursework. Up to 73 approved semester credits may be transferred to WSU.

If you are planning to transfer  from WSU Pullman or another accredited institution, you are required to have completed at least 60 credits of college coursework with a cumulative GPA of 2.5 or better. In addition, completion of all lower-division general education requirements is required.

For more information on lower-division coursework accepted for entry into the program, please refer to the BA in Professional Development Information and Transfer Advising Sheet.

How to apply

If you will have met the above requirements by the time you enroll in the program, you may apply to WSU Spokane. Although applications are accepted on an ongoing basis, we encourage you to apply by early spring for fall semester admission to allow time to make up any prerequisite deficiencies, if necessary.

To apply:

  • Complete an Undergraduate Application for Admission. You may apply online or mail your application. Printable applications are available on the Admissions Applications page. You can also contact student services at 509-358-7537 or enroll@wsu.edu and request for a paper application to be mailed to you.
  • Include a $38 nonrefundable application fee with your application.
  • Arrange to have official transcripts sent directly from each college or university attended showing work completed at the time of application. Final and complete transcripts must be submitted prior to your initial enrollment.
