College Access & Transition Programs is at the heart of Washington State University’s land-grant mission — expanding educational opportunities to those historically excluded. Our equity-infused approaches begin by developing pathways at the secondary level and implementing high-impact practices to advance a culture of academic excellence and ensure post-secondary, and long-term success.
Our summer programs serve a diverse community of high-achieving and ambitious students with transformative educational experiences at a world-class institution. Scholars are introduced to the structure and rigor of the university, provided with opportunities to foster meaningful academic and social connections, and empower them to take ownership of their educational journey.
We invite Washington State University Pullman faculty and graduate students with teaching experience to apply to be part of the summer program. We are also seeking lab placement opportunities for the summer program participants. Those in STEM (including laboratory-based courses), Social Sciences, and Liberal Arts are encouraged to apply.
