wrote a silly paper and paid $$$$
Business - Management and Administration
I'm not sure I can comment too much on this, as I transferred from another institution in my junior year. I never wrote the ACT or SAT, or wrote an application essay. However, I applied with a 2.73 undergrad GPA (in my sophmore year). The admissions office did, however, look at my grades for my senior year in high school (3.5 GPA).
Business - Management and Administration
In high school I had a 3.4 cumlative, did very well junior and senior year (3.8 average over the final 2 years) despite difficulties freshman and sophomore years. I had a 1100 SAT score (fool for not studying enough), and was on the golf team and in the improvisational acting club. Also I participated in the Relay for Life for 2 years, and had a couple small awards for school. Also I feel I wrote a good essay. In general it is not difficult to get in, however, if you feel you lack in certain areas, show your worthiness in your essay, it can make a difference.
Business - Management and Administration
I transferred here but you just have to write a few essays and fill out a small questionnaire. It was much easier than applying to most Universities.
Business - Management and Administration
Getting in was easy as hell because I had about a 3.6 coming out of UW, which is pretty high.

If you want to come to WWU, you can't be dumb but you don't have to be extremely blessed I assume. However, everyone is pretty much classy here compared to many other public schools in Washington that I have visited. I think diversity is very important for your application so hopefully you have some kind of experience in diversity.
Education
I was really easy for me to get into the college all I did was fill out my essay and application and I was in. I didn't even have that great of grades. But I have heard from others that it was hard to get in. WWU really looks for students who know what they want to major in and who have future goals. I recommend to not go into the education department at Western because the expectations for the program is 3 years when you are can get the same certificate in 2 years at another university. Also WWU education department thinks that it is so much better then everyone else and that superiority was really annoying and unneeded.
Education
I had to go to group interviews and write several papers and letters. You have to have at least a 2.75. I really believe you should check out all the programs in the area. They seem to really only want your money and do not seem to want to take care of their students. They'll do anything to extend your time in the program. They've gotten so bad, they've had to close on their off-campus sites because their enrollment fell so much. I wouldn't be surprised if other sites are closed down in the coming years.
English
I didn't do anything special. I was a good student, but not outstanding.
Journalism
Get good grades, 3.4 gpa, 1200 SAT write a decent essay, apply early. And you're in, selective but not overly competitive admissions
