Washington 45
The Washington 45 agreement spells out a list of courses offered by Washington state's community and technical colleges that satisfy up to one year’s worth (45 credits) of general education requirements at public four-year institutions.
A student who earns these credits is not guaranteed admission into a four-year institution. The Washington 45 does not equal — or replace — the Direct Transfer Agreement associate of arts degree , associate of science, or any major-related program agreements.
