Guaranteed Admission Program

Get Admitted - Guaranteed!

We are excited to announce Everett Public Schools is now a participating institution in the following guaranteed admissions programs, or GAP:

The Guaranteed Admission Program with five participating Washington four-year, public institutions

The Automatic Admission Partnership with Pacific Lutheran University

The Guaranteed Admission Program with Saint Martin's University

Everett Public Schools has partnered with Central Washington University, Eastern Washington University, The Evergreen State College, Pacific Lutheran University, Saint Martin's University, Washington State University and Western Washington University to help students meet their college and career goals through the Guaranteed Admissions Program (GAP). Through GAP, a student who meets the following criteria is guaranteed admission to these institutions.

To qualify for the Guaranteed Admissions Program, a student must have:

A minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 (GPA of 3.3 for Pacific Lutheran University)

Completed necessary College Academic Distribution Requirements (CADR) courses in high school (typically mirrors high school grad requirements)

Completed this Guaranteed Admissions Program Opt-in Form giving your permission to release information to the participating colleges and universities

If all of these are true or the student is on track to meet these criteria by high school graduation, GAP guarantees the student will be admitted to all five participating Washington four-year, public institutions and to the two participating four-year, private institutions (Pacific Lutheran University and Saint Martin's University). Students eligible for guaranteed admission must complete an admission application and additional requirements by the institute after receiving an admission letter. The GAP program does not provide financial aid or cover the cost of college. Students will want to complete the FAFSA or WASFA and contact the financial aid office of the colleges for financial aid and scholarship information.

By giving permission through the Opt-In Form, the parent/guardian is giving permission to share the following information about their child with colleges:

Student's first name

Student's last name

Student's date of birth
