Washington Residency status for tuition

Effective June 9, 2022, any military-affiliated student who is eligible for VA educational assistance or rehabilitation benefits is eligible for Washington resident tuition. This process is not automatic, and you must apply for residency status using the military residency application. We cannot process your enrollment verification if you are a non-resident and have not received a response to your military residency application.

Washington Resident

No further action is needed. You do not need to complete the Military Residency application as long as you remain continuously enrolled.
