Western Undergraduate Exchange Program (WUE)

The Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE, pronounced “woo-ee”) is a regional tuition-discount agreement administered by the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE). WUE enables students from one of 16 WICHE states and territories in the Western U.S. to enroll as nonresidents in participating public colleges and universities and pay a discounted tuition rate. Residents from the following states & territories are eligible for the WUE tuition rate:

 Alaska Hawaii New Mexico  South Dakota 
 Arizona Montana North Dakota Utah
 California Nevada Oregon Wyoming
 Colorado Commonwealth of the
 Northern Marianas Islands
 Guam 

WUE eligibility is determined at the time of application. Qualifying students will be emailed an application for the WUE following acceptance to NIC and must submit the application by the deadline:

  • Fall Semester – before the 10th day of semester
  • Spring Semester – before the 10th day of semester
  • Summer term – before the 5th day of term

Once a WUE application is approved, the Admissions Office will adjust your residency and tuition rate.

Qualification for the WUE rate:

  • Maintain a bona fide residency in a WUE state.
  • Not be seeking to establish residency in the state of Idaho.
  • Recipients must remain in good academic standing (maintain a 2.0 cumulative grade point average).
  • Time accrued while receiving this award cannot be used for establishing Idaho residency for tuition paying purposes.
