Western Washington University on the Peninsulas

For over 120 years, Western Washington University has been shaping the academic landscape of the Pacific Northwest. Now, we're expanding our offerings to the Peninsulas and bringing new academic opportunities directly to you.

With a commitment to providing accessible education without compromising quality, WWU has partnered with Olympic College and Peninsula College to extend our bachelor's degree programs to three distinct campuses on the Olympic and Kitsap Peninsulas — each offering a selection of programs tailored to the interests and goals of students in the region.
