How to Participate in a Western Undergraduate Exchange

Many students want to go to an out-of-state college, but can't afford the expense. If you are a resident of certain states you may be eligible to attend a college in other states for 150% of the tuition that a resident would pay. The program that oversees this is called Western Undergraduate Exchange or WUE. Follow these steps to learn how it works.
