University Centers

Central Washington University operates six university centers and three teaching sites that provide programs on community college campuses across Washington state. The centers offer upper division (300- and 400-level) and graduate-level coursework leading to baccalaureate and master’s degrees. Day and evening classes are offered to accommodate the needs of time- and place-bound students. The centers are designed for students who have completed their Direct Transfer Agreement (DTA) associate degree or most of their general education requirements.
