How to Apply to CityU

City University of Seattle employs a “rolling admission” policy for most programs, which means that the University will accept applications and announce admission decisions continually throughout the year. All applicants, regardless of location, must meet the same admissions standards. Applicants should note, however, that additional program admission requirements, tuition, and fee schedules may differ from program to program.
