Unit Achievements • Increased the number of freshman applications for fall 2010 by 6 percent, as of Sept. 1, 2010, even though the collegebound high school population in Washington declined. This represents the second largest number of freshman applications ever received by Eastern Washington University, behind only to the number of applications received in fall of 2005. The Admissions team also succeeded in bringing in a record number of transfer applications with a 6 percent increase from fall 2009.
