Mission and Commitment

The Council of Presidents (COP) strives to be a common voice for the public baccalaureate sector and the most respected and trusted resource for decision makers on issues affecting public higher education. COP serves as the coordinating role for a number of initiatives and activities common to the public baccalaureate institutions, fostering coordination and collaboration among the public baccalaureates as well as with other educational partners, both in Washington and nationally. Washington’s public, four-year universities and college are committed to serving Washingtonians throughout their lives to meet their education and career goals. We are collectively focused on retaining Washington high school graduates in Washington to meet their needs and the needs of the state in the 21st century.

Access and Opportunities

Early Options for High School Students Washington’s public four-year college and universities collaborate and provide numerous pre-college programs and opportunities for K-12 students to help prepare them for higher education and earn credit while in high school. Concurrent Enrollment – High school students enroll in college courses at their high school (College in the High School), or at a university (Running Start), earning concurrent high school credit and college credit. College Preparatory Programs with Exams – High school students may earn college credit through recognized standardized exams. This includes Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, and Cambridge International. In addition, institutions have strong pre-college programs and partnerships serving K-12 institutions throughout the state. Transfer Opportunities For more than 40 years Washington’s public baccalaureate institutions, in collaboration with the community and technical college and Independent Colleges of Washington, participate in the state’s direct transfer agreement (DTA) associate degree and associate of science transfer (AS-T) degrees. The public baccalaureate sector participates in the state’s 10 major related pathways within the DTA and AS-T agreements ranging in areas from pre-nursing to computer science. In addition, institutions have developed articulation agreements with other two- and four-year, public and independent colleges both in- and out-of-state to ease the transfer from one institution to another. Online Learning Online learning is a growing educational option that enables Washingtonians to earn college credit from anywhere in the state. Online learning is evolving to include multiple approaches such as hybrid courses which offer a mix of online and classroom learning and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) which offer online coursework. While these programs are increasingly part of more student’s academic experiences, they offer opportunities in particular for place-bound students and working adults.

International Programs A wide range of international study opportunities are available to students at Washington’s public, four-year colleges and universities. International programs are designed to offer academic, cultural and personal learning opportunities in a structured academic setting at partner institutions abroad.

Washington Council for High School and College Relations 2020-21 Higher Education Handbook

Ensuring Career & College Readiness via a robust High School & Beyond Plan (HSBP) With roughly 2/3 of jobs in today’s economy necessitating some level of post-high school education or training, our students must access personalized career and college exploration opportunities. School counselors and staff must guide students in connecting their learning to future aspirations, including technical/2-/4-year colleges, apprenticeship, industry certification programs, and military or on-the-job training. HSBP updates from 2019’s House Bill (HB) 1599 and a new mandate from 2020’s Senate Bill (SB) 6141 enhance this critical advising, planning and preparation process.

From HB1599, the HSBP now includes a required financial aid component:

 evidence that all students receive information about state and federal financial aid programs

Also from HB1599, other required HSBP development changes include:

 all 10th grade students must update their HSBP, using their statewide assessment scores, transcript and other pertinent information to inform junior year course decisions  the school closures in Spring of 2020 made the new requirement of using SBA scores to inform junior year classes not applicable for the Class of 2022

 students with Individualized Education Program (IEP) services must develop a HSBP aligned with their IEP, and in a similar manner and with similar staff as their general education classmates  OSPI’s has developed resources for supporting this collaborative process (see pg. 3)

 by 2020-21, all districts must provide access to an electronic platform for the HSBP  OSPI’s list of vendors that have been vetted for alignment with state requirements, but do NOT have to be used, can be found on OSPI’s website in Bulletin 041-20

 by the 2021-22 school year, all districts must adopt an academic acceleration policy (see RCW 28A.320.195) that also ensures students’ interests and post-high school goals inform their course taking decisions about which “next most rigorous course” to take

 complete one or more of the possible Graduation Pathways that is aligned with their HSBP

From SB6141, in connection with the HSBP’s required financial aid component:

 districts with a high school must offer an annual Financial Aid Advising Day for seniors and their families by Dec. 1 (get details and resources at: www.wsac.wa.gov/12th-year-campaign)  the HSBP must also include information about the Washington college grant (formerly the State Need grant; get details and resources at: https://wsac.wa.gov/wcg)

11

 online HSBP platforms will link to a new WA financial aid calculator and standardized student aid award letter (for WA’s 2-/4-year colleges) once these new resources are created

Graduation Pathways With the passage of HB1599 in 2019, the Legislature officially expanded the ways in which students can demonstrate that they’ve developed the skills and expertise needed for a meaningful first step into college or career preparation after high school. Building off a robust career & college exploration and planning process (the HSBP) and quality instruction, completing a graduation pathway is intended to indicate that students are prepared for a meaningful next step after high school. It also signifies to employers and postsecondary education/training institutions a student’s readiness for that step. Students can now demonstrate their readiness for a post-secondary career or college via one or more of the following graduation pathways.

Graduation pathways available to the Class of 2021: (Click here for Class of 2020 Pathways one‐pager)

College-Readiness and Transfers

Dual Credit readysetgrad.org/grad/college-credit-high-school

Dual-credit programs allow students to earn high school and college credit simultaneously. Students can earn dual credit by completing college courses (e.g. Running Start, College in the High School, and CTE Dual Credit) or by earning certain scores on standardized exams (e.g. Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, and Cambridge International). Students who earn college credit are more likely to graduate from high school, enroll in college, and complete college degrees.

Helpful resources for counselors include the following: Handout comparing dual credit programs https://www.wsac.wa.gov/sites/default/files/Dual.Credit%20%28002%29.pdf Dual credit look up tool (to gauge how test scores may be accepted as college credit): www.readysetgrad.org/rsg_cred_wiz/form Comparison of Dual Credit Programs: https://wsac.wa.gov/sites/default/files/Dual.Credit.Comparison.pdf

Transfers wsac.wa.gov/transfers

Washington’s public community and technical colleges offer transfer associate degrees that make it easier for students to transfer to bachelor’s programs in Washington. These degrees transfer to all public and most private four-year colleges and universities.

There are three different transfer associate degrees: • Direct Transfer Agreement (DTA) Associate Degree: Meets most lower division general education requirements at four-year colleges and universities • Associate of Science – Transfer (AS-T) Degree: For students who want to earn a bachelor’s degree in engineering or science • Major Related Programs (MRPs): DTA and AS-T plans that prepare students for bachelor’s degrees in specific majors such as business, nursing, and computer science

Once admitted to a participating bachelor’s degree program, students who complete transfer degrees can generally expect 90 transferrable quarter credits and junior class standing.

22 College Admissions

College Admissions wsac.wa.gov/college-admissions

Washington colleges have different admission policies, and some are more selective than others. Public community and technical colleges have an open-admission policy. WSAC works with partners in K-12 and higher education to set minimum admission standards for the state’s public baccalaureate schools.

In response to the COVID-19 public health emergency, the Policy was revised on March 31, 2020 to allow for institutional flexibility for academic years 2020-21 and 2021-22. Information about the College Academic Distribution Requirements (CADRs): https://wsac.wa.gov/sites/default/files/2020.Minimum.College.Admission.Standards.Policy.pdf

Students seeking admission to a four-year public college in Washington must meet the credits required in the minimum college admission standards. In addition, students interested in college athletics and athletic scholarships must meet NCAA academic eligibility requirements, available at www.ncaa.org/student- athletes/play-division-i-sports.

Meeting the Needs of Pell-Eligible Students Gonzaga is working hard to meet the financial need of all Pell-eligible students in the state of Washington.

Test Optional for Fall 2021 Applicants

Gonzaga University will suspend the admission requirement of a SAT or ACT score for students applying for college admission for fall 2021.

Gonzaga University will continue to review applications holistically, considering the context of a student’s application, and carefully review each applicant’s curriculum, grades, writing, activities and involvement (including part-time work), and character.

Gonzaga also recognizes that high schools may choose to use a “Pass/Fail” grading option, and the University notes that will not disadvantage students in the admission process. ______Application Deadline

Last year, Gonzaga changed our application deadline for fall semester. The deadline for first-year students is December 1, 2020. We will accept late applications until Feb. 1, 2021.

Students will be notified of their admission by March 1, 2021. They will still be automatically considered for a merit-based scholarship at the time of admission.

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) opens October 1, and our priority deadline is now December 1, 2020. We ask that all students submit applications to Gonzaga-specific scholarships (available at gonzaga.edu/scholarships) by January 1, 2021. The January 1 deadline also applies to students applying to the Honors Program (gonzaga.edu/honors).

New Integrated Science and Engineering Facility Set to Open Fall 2021

Our Integrated Science and Engineering Facility is a new project currently underway that aims to provide students of all majors with a space that fosters innovative learning. This new facility will boast a sizable 83,000 square feet and more than 15 different types of labs for collaborative undergraduate research. This new innovative facility is intended to open in the Fall of 2021.

Connect with Gonzaga / Virtual Options

Gonzaga is offering a wide range of virtual visit options, including Virtual Information Sessions, Meetings with Admission Counselors, Student Panels, and more. Students can register at gonzaga.edu/virtualgonzaga.

If you have questions or would like a Gonzaga representative to provide information or a presentation to your students, please reach out to the representative for your school - gonzaga.edu/mycounselor.
