All of our academic programs are available for students interested in participating in the WUE program.  This program attracts students from all over the western region of our country; thereby adding to our diverse student body.  If you accept the WUE waiver you cannot count the time as a WUE student toward the time required for establishing Alaska residency.

The Western Regional Graduate Program (WRGP) makes high-quality, distinctive graduate programs and healthcare-related programs available to students of the West at the resident tuition rate. As part of the Student Exchange Program of the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education, WRGP helps place students in a wide range of graduate programs, all designed around the educational, social, and economic needs of the West.

Through WRGP, students are eligible to enroll in available programs outside of their home state at resident tuition rates. Students need not demonstrate financial need.
