Washington State University (WSU) has an acceptance rate of approximately 80%, making it a moderately selective institution. The rate reflects the proportion of applicants admitted annually, though this can vary slightly by year and program.
Factors influencing admission include GPA, standardized test scores (though some programs are test-optional), and extracurricular involvement. WSU emphasizes holistic review, considering personal statements and letters of recommendation. Prospective students should check specific departmental requirements, as competitive programs may have stricter criteria.
