Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE)

The Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) enables students in 16 Western states and territories to enroll at participating public colleges and universities outside of their home state and pay reduced tuition. Students who are residents of Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming are eligible to request a reduced tuition rate. With WUE, out-of-state students pay no more than 150% of in-state tuition at participating schools, compared with non-resident rates that can exceed 300% of in-state rates.
