High School Counselors and Administrators

• The Seattle Promise application is open to graduating seniors in the Class of 2025 attending Seattle public schools. The deadline to apply is Feb. 14, 2025. 
• Students are encouraged to apply to the college and submit their FAFSA/WASFA as soon as possible to access other funding options available to them.  The deadline to submit the 2025-26 FAFSA or WASFA has been extended to May 14, 2025 (extended from April 30, 2025).
• Next steps for students who met the Feb. 14 application deadline are listed on this webpage.
• A Seattle Promise program flyer with program deadlines is available as a .pdf for download.

• Each of the Seattle Colleges - North Seattle College, Seattle Central College, and South Seattle College - is separately accredited. When applying, students must submit an admissions application for each college they are interested in attending.
• Likewise, we also encourage students to send their FAFSA/WASFA information to all three schools as well. The FAFSA/WASFA college codes are: 009704 (North), 003787 (Central) and 009706 (South).

Explore Seattle Colleges 

• We invite students to explore which college is the best fit for them by reviewing the college's website, attending a virtual or in-person information session or campus tour (when available).
  • About North 
  • About Central
  • About South
• Then, we encourage students to think about their education and career aspirations by exploring our areas of study and types of degrees. 
  • First review the areas of study, then choose a program of interest and a type of degree that fits their goals.
  • Districtwide our programs are organized by the same areas of study; however, each college offers a variety of programs. 
  • Attending one of our Discover Seattle Colleges events also gives students an opportunity to hear from program instructors at each of our colleges.
