University Policies and Procedures

Welcome to Western Washington University's web site for university policies. This site provides a central location for policies that affect the campus community.

A university policy is defined by the following criteria:

• Connects the university's mission to individual conduct;
• Establishes specific requirements for members of the campus community;
• Ensures compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
• Promotes operational efficiencies and reduces institutional risks; and
• Pertains to more than one division or college of the university.

*Please note that individual colleges or divisions may maintain policies and procedures related specifically to their units. Refer to those departments directly for accessing program-specific policies.

Every effort has been made to provide accurate information. It is possible that a policy has been amended since posting on the web or that a more current version of a policy exists.

Questions or comments may be directed to the University Policy Coordinator at: Policies@wwu.edu.
