Western Undergraduate Exchange 

The Western Undergraduate Exchange is a regional tuition agreement offered through the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE) that gives students who attend school at a participating college outside of Colorado at a reduced tuition rate. 

15 WICHE States including: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. If you reside in one of the participating states, you are eligible to request tuition at a reduced rate at participating 2 and 4-year colleges in any of the listed states. This can be a significant reduction in cost compared to the non-resident tuition rates. 

What are the choices for college?

Search the WUE Database to see which institutions participate and which programs they have available. 
  • There are currently around 150 public colleges and universities that participate in WUE; not all public institutions in every WICHE state participate in the program. 
  • Some participating schools have opened their entire curriculum on a first come, first serve basis. However, the schools have the option of excluding certain high demanding majors from the WUE program. 
  • If you enroll through WUE under a specific major and then later change your major, you may lose your WUE tuition rate discount if you change your major to a ineligible major.
