Applications are open until Monday, December 26, 2022, at 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time, or until the program fills, whichever comes first.
This program has an automatic acceptance process. Once you complete the application and pay the application fee, you’re in. See the steps below for more details.
You’ll apply to the program on MyContinuum, our new application system. MyContinuum helps you seamlessly manage the enrollment process and more.
Before you apply, carefully read the admissions requirements on the Requirements tab above. In the application, you’ll be asked to confirm that you meet these requirements.
If you have any questions, or want to make sure this program is right for you, reach out to Enrollment Services at enroll@pce.uw.edu or 800-506-1325.
Complete the online application on MyContinuum. You’ll need to create an account first. If you already have a UW NetID, choose that option. Otherwise, sign in with a Google or Apple account.
Next, pay the $50 nonrefundable application fee through MyContinuum. Your application is not complete until you pay this fee.
Once you’re accepted, we’ll ask you to complete a questionnaire on MyContinuum to help us learn more about you. Then you’ll get details about how to register for your first-term course and pay your course fees.
To ensure your spot in class, we recommend that you register by the priority registration deadline, which is four weeks before class begins. After that time, we may release your seat to another student. The final registration deadline is two days before the course starts.
To apply, you must have one year of full-time work experience in any field.
Including time in class, you should expect to spend about six to 10 hours each week on coursework.
If English is not your native language, you should have at least intermediate English skills to enroll. To see if you qualify, make sure you are at the B2 level on the CEFR self-assessment grid. To learn more, see English Language Proficiency Requirements – Noncredit Programs.
You earn a certificate of completion by successfully completing all required courses. For more information, see Earning the Certificate.
