Eastern Washington University Reviews
Most Recent Reviews
Eastern Washington University has an extended program at Bellevue College, which is where I finished my associate degree. The school offers multiple undergraduate degrees at this location. It is particularly convenient because it allows you to travel to Eastern Washington and take the remaining of your classes on the main campus, or vice versa.
Good school with more diversity than average. The curriculum is average and you will likely have the same professor more than once. It is a D1 school with a small school vibe. You will make life long friends and enjoy your time here if you branch out and join the many activities on campus.
