SOU has always been popular with prospective students from Washington. Situated at the elevation of 2000 feet in the cradle of the Siskiyou and Cascade Mountain ranges, we offer a fresh, outdoor mountain climate together with the stimulation of a first rate liberal arts university and culturally dynamic town. Winter sports abound on nearby 7,500 foot Mt. Ashland, located only a half hour away from campus. The climate in Ashland is more moderate than elsewhere in the Pacific Northwest (more like California!) with an average of 20 inches of rainfall per year. Expect about 265 rain-free days per year!
Students from Washington may be eligible for the Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) Scholarship Program - which saves you thousands of dollars a year in tuition!
Our students are successful. Thousands of SOU alumni throughout the world are thriving as civic and business leaders, educators, doctors, scientists, attorneys, and creative visionaries. When our students and alumni talk about SOU, many say what they value in the education they received here is their relationships with professors who became their advisors and mentors.
