Central Washington University has seven campus locations in addition to the residential campus in Ellensburg. The University 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. Visit the webpage at www.cwu.edu/about/cwu-campus-locations.
For more information about the University Centers, contact Lauren Hibbs, Interim Executive Director of Extended Learning at (509)-963-1456 or Lauren.Hibbs@cwu.edu.
