Students must be 18 or have a high school diploma or GED® to enroll at LWTech. Students
who are high school juniors or seniors are referred to the Lake Washington Technical
Academy or Running Start to explore eligibility through those programs.
If a student is not participating in these programs and wishes to register for a single course at the college, and this course is not specifically designed for a younger
student, he/she may be considered for enrollment in this course in cases of exceptional
circumstances. The student must not be eligible for general college admission, or
be enrolled through other special entry programs. Such students must be (1) at least
14 and (2) at least in the 9th grade at the time the course starts. (Courses that are specifically designed for
underage students do not require an exception). The applicant must be not eligible
for college admission, or be enrolled through special entry programs (see above).
Regular tuition rates and fees apply. Students much purchase required textbook and
materials.

meets regular enrollment requirements. Students must earn a minimum of 2.0 in any
course taken via the underage enrollment option to be allowed to register as an underage
