  • The Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE)

    What is WUE? The Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) is a tuition-savings program that makes attending out-of-state colleges and universities more affordable for students. Through WUE, you receive a reduced tuition rate, giving you more education options for your money. Virtually all undergraduate degrees are available.
    How does WUE work?
    Participating two- and four-year public colleges and universities across the Western U.S. agree to charge out-of-state students no more than 150 percent of the institution’s in-state tuition. Tuition savings may vary depending on the college or major. The bottom line: You save big with WUE and almost always pay less than out-of-state tuition.

  • The Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (OEWS) program produces wage estimates annually for approximately 830 occupations. These are estimates of the number of people employed in certain occupations and the wages paid to them. The wage data has not been validated by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) and are not official BLS data series; however, EDD Labor Market Information Division feels that the additional information is useful to users of our wage data.

Words from our Counseling Department

 

Working with high school students to prepare for college means guiding them through academic planning, exploring career pathways, and supporting them in building the confidence to pursue their goals. Counseling at the high school level is about more than applications and deadlines , it’s about helping students see their potential and connecting them with the resources to succeed in college and beyond. Supporting students in their college journey begins in high school, where we help them navigate requirements, discover opportunities, and believe in their ability to achieve their dreams.
