Overview

The Pre-Professional programs are planned for two groups of students-those who want one or two years of college work prior to entering an occupation, and those who want to do pre-professional work for one, two, three, or four years before entering a professional school, university, or college. The programs described are not to be considered unalterable. They represent patterns that generally agree with the requirements of many professional schools. Since there are many variations in the requirements of the professional schools, students should, after consulting the CWU catalog, select courses required by the institution from which they expect to earn a degree. Pre-Engineering is a non-degree advising program through which a student can prepare for admission to a professional program at another institution. CWU does offer all prerequisite courses necessary for successful admission to such a program. Most colleges of engineering accept students into their programs only after they have successfully completed a pre-engineering course of study. This usually takes the first two or three years of a student’s college career, and can be done at CWU. Then the student must transfer to the engineering school of their choice and apply for admission to the particular engineering program wanted. They will graduate from that college and therefore must satisfy its requirements. The course requirements in engineering vary considerably for different fields of engineering and for various colleges of engineering. The most important step a pre-engineering student can take is to consult the catalog of the particular college of engineering the student hopes to attend and then to plan a program at CWU to satisfy as many specific requirements of that college as possible. Students whose plans are not definite are advised to follow the typical first-year program outlined below and have a firm choice of an engineering program by the beginning of their second year. The pre-engineering advisor can assist students in these matters.

Post-Study Work / Immigration Information

Please confirm current eligibility with Eagle Link before applying.

Optional Practical Training (OPT)
Verify before applying

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
