Going above so students can go beyond
Now more than ever, we must meet students where they are and provide them the support they need to pursue every opportunity, realize their full potential, and shape our world. To improve student access and success, Washington University has launched Make Way: Our Student Initiative.
Support a best-in-class student experience.
At WashU, learning is never confined to the four walls of a classroom, so why would student support be limited to tuition, books, and room and board? We’re committed to serving our students with comprehensive support that fosters a balanced and purposeful life.
