CITY UNIVERSITY OF SEATTLE CATALOG

The contents of the 2018-2019 City University of Seattle Catalog have been compiled and organized to provide enrolled and prospective students, and others, with a broad overview of the programs and policies of City University of Seattle. Enrolled students may use this catalog as a student handbook. It is as current and complete as publication deadlines permit.

Typically, within a catalog's effective dates of use, courses and curricula can vary, tuition and fees may be increased, policies might be modified, and personnel changes will occur. Normally, the University makes announcements of this nature via the University Web Site at CityU.edu or Portal at my.CityU.edu. Letters dealing with specific changes in programs, policies or procedures may be emailed to students, bulletins may be posted at site offices, and/or memoranda may be read in class. Students are responsible for keeping fully informed by these means, and should consult appropriate University offices or an Advisor with questions.

The writing and editing of this catalog have been guided by an effort to attain total factual accuracy. If regulations, program requirements and services described herein conflict with current practice, the latter will prevail.

All information contained in this catalog is subject to change without prior notice by the officials of City University of Seattle. The catalog does not constitute an agreement between the University and its students.

Welcome to City University of Seattle

Our goal at City University of Seattle is to design this catalog, these programs, and every course for your success. Our definition of success means we have helped you comprehend and retain knowledge that will help you in your career and your life. We call them our learning objectives, and we measure our performance on how well we transmit those important aspects of knowledge.

It is also important to us that you finish your program of study, and we remind ourselves of that frequently. Starting is good, but finishing allows you to do great things.

At City University of Seattle (CityU), we offer you the opportunity to learn the "best practices" that are currently being used in your chosen field or profession. You will also be challenged to develop insight into how to improve the profession by faculty who are practitioners themselves, and scholars in their respective discipline. You will be given exposure to alternate career pathways that you may not have previously considered. One thing is certain, upon completion of your chosen program you will be prepared with the skills generally required to meet and exceed your career pathway expectations.

CityU has a rich heritage as one of the first Pacific Northwest universities to participate in distance and online education. We have an established tradition and commitment to personalized education with highly ranked academic and certificate programs. The University is ranked among the top 50 U.S. universities offering online bachelor degrees by U.S. News & World Report. As the demands of the students and the technologies have advanced, so have the wide varieties of learning formats and delivery methodologies that will be available to you. Today, you have an opportunity to participate in online, onsite and leading edge performance-based education as just a few illustrations of this commitment.

Annually, CityU serves nearly 7,000 students worldwide, but our priority is to treat each student as an individual with the care and service that is a hallmark of CityU. It is because of this personalized approach that more than 90 percent of students surveyed feel they have gained new career competencies in their degree program; and more than 80 percent of CityU's surveyed alumni say they had a positive experience with CityU.

Thank you for coming to CityU. There is a great deal of extraordinary learning and professional development happening here, and it is our goal to help you achieve the life you want. We are a private, nonprofit university where our students remain our only shareholders. Please let us know how we can serve you better.
