We make it easy to transfer

Lake Washington Technical College has formal agreements with several different baccalaureate institutions, one of which may suit your academic needs. These agreements give our graduates the ability to transition smoothly between a two-year technical degree and a bachelor's degree.

Why transfer and earn a bachelor's degree?

Improve your chances in the job market and make more money.
Employers want graduates with:

  1. Strong written and verbal communication skills
  2. The ability to get along with and work with others
  3. Independent and critical thinking skills
  4. A broad rather than narrow education

Why Start at LWTC

LWTC maintains agreements with many local, national and even international four-year colleges universities, so that our students have an opportunity to continue the education that began with us. We also employ a full-time transfer adviser to assist you with the transition.

Our unique college provides an opportunity to prepare for employment and transfer at the same time. Many students use the skills they gain at LWTC to work while finishing a bachelor's degree to help afford rising tuition rates. Others decide to work for a period of time and then pursue a bachelor's degree to prepare for career advancement.
