President’s Message
REACHING NEW HEIGHTS!
Although the college has attractive, modern facilities (with new
buildings under construction), what really sold me on my first
visit to LWTC was the employees. Now as president, I continually
hear about the dedicated faculty and staff at the college and how
they have changed and enriched so many lives. There are many
fine colleges in the region, but the one sustainable competitive
advantage we have at LWTC is our human capital.
When I was young, someone once remarked that if you see a turtle
up on top of a fencepost, you know that he didn’t get up there by
himself. Last weekend, I joined two other employees from the
college on a climb to the summit of Mount Hood. Working
together, all of us performed beyond what we could have done as
individuals.
In the four years that I’ve been at the college, we have worked
together as a team and achieved remarkable successes. We have
been tested by the state’s shrinking funding while the demand for
the college’s offerings has never been greater. At the same time,
we have worked hard to meet this demand and the college has
never been stronger. The state has responded to our successes
with funding for the Technology Center ($17 million), and phase
one of our Redmond Campus ($7 million) and by funding the
renovation of the East and West Buildings ($4.4 million).
Dr. L. Michael Metke
President
Our goal is to be the region’s premier provider of workforce
training. I began to list some of the college’s offerings that have
received state and national recognition but it quickly ran to
several pages. I am limited to just one page, but if you ever want to
have all the conversation you can handle, just ask me what makes
me proud to be your president!
MISSION STATEMENT
To prepare students for
today’s careers &
tomorrow’s opportunities.

As proud as I am of our past achievements, we won’t rest on our
laurels. Our mission is to prepare students for today’s careers and

expectations. Just like you, we still have lots of summits to reach!

Cascade Mountains, to the West, Seattle and the
Olympic Peninsula. Portland, Oregon is three hours
south. Vancouver, British Columbia is two hours
north. The city is close to the major employment
centers of Seattle, Bellevue, and employers Boeing,
PACCAR, and Microsoft, yet twenty percent of those
who live in Kirkland also work in the local thriving

Selecting a Program of Study
YOUR PREFERENCES CAN GUIDE STUDY AND
CAREER PLANS
YOUR VALUES
Deciding which career is best for you is not only a
very important decision, it’s often a very difficult one.
Our counselors and advisers know this and will
work to help you match your interests and abilities
with appropriate careers. You can start your career
decision process by taking a self-inventory of what’s
important to you.
YOUR INTERESTS
Your interests play an important role in career
selection. When you enjoy what you do, you increase
your chances for success because you find your
work satisfying and fulfilling.
YOUR SKILLS AND ABILITIES
Identify what you are good at and then talk to others
about your strengths. Your skills and abilities are the
key to knowing yourself better and making a positive
career decision. When you enter a program that
features your strengths, class work will be easier for you.
You make all kinds of personal value decisions–
where to live, what to do for entertainment, what
kind of clothes to wear or food to eat. Think about
these choices and by assessing them, you’ll help
identify the priorities in your life.
LIFESTYLE
The kind of career you choose can influence the
kind of life you’ll live. For example, some health
care workers often work weekends, but they find
the work rewarding and good for their self-esteem
because it fulfills a personal value.
COUNSELING SERVICES
The college’s counselors and advisers are available
to offer academic, career, and personal counseling
to students and prospective students. Appointments
are available by calling Student Services at
(425)739-8100, Ext. 501. Advising services are
also available online at [email protected].
YOUR PREFERRED WORK STYLE
Think about the kind of work structure and the kind
of environment you want to work in. Consider the
amount of responsibility you’ll want and the amount
of stress you can handle. These personal characteristics affect your career success. Think about
whether you prefer to work alone or with others, be
your own boss, work outdoors, work in a large
company or a small business, or interact with
the public.

LWTC graduates from the certificate program who are transferring to DigiPen Institute of Technology can
generally expect to graduate, assuming they take normal course loads, have met the specific prerequisites
for the major, and make satisfactory progress. The GPA earned at LWTC does not transfer; only the

(e.g., quarter hours to semester hours).
MICROSOFT OFFICE SPECIALIST (MOS)
TESTING CENTER
MOS textbooks are available in the college’s
bookstore.
Lake Washington Technical College is now a
Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) testing center,
and offers the MOS program. This program certifies
users in Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and
Access applications. The MOS certificate alerts an
employer that the applicant has the computing skills

productively. MOS certification testing can be
scheduled through the Assessment Center at
(425)739-8115, and is located in E210.
Students do not need to take the software classes
prior to taking the Microsoft exam. They may
register for each software program’s test only. Nonstudents may also register for the exams to earn
Microsoft certification at the specialist or expert
level in any of the four applications.
Exam results are displayed
onscreen as soon as the individual has completed the test.
Courses at Lake Washington Technical College
prepare individuals for the specialist-level exam of
each application; students may continue learning on
their own and return to take the expert-level exam.

PRIOR LEARNING ASSESSMENT
COURSE CHALLENGE/CREDIT BY EXAMINATION
At Lake Washington Technical College, you will find
special services designed to offer support and
enhancement for your education. We want your
educational experience to be both pleasant and
successful.
Prior Learning Assessment is a method whereby
learning gained through an individual’s life
experience is considered as credit toward a college
degree program. This learning can come from a
variety of sources, including work, volunteer,
hobbies, and/or family responsibilities. Students
may receive Lake Washington Technical College
credit if an acceptable level of competence in the
course material is demonstrated.
ASSESSMENT AND EDUCATIONAL PLANNING
Assessing readiness for college programs is an
important part of student success, and advisers are
available at Student Services in W202 to help each
student understand their placement tests, determine
academic readiness in math and English, and help
select appropriate classes. An adviser can help each
student determine degree and certificate requirements, a sequence of courses, and select general
education courses. The first appointment with an
adviser is also a good time to discuss the transfer of
any other college credits. Quality planning will help
each student select the right program and the right
classes at the right time. Special arrangements for
group testing are available by appointment through
the Assessment Center at (425)739-8115 at E210 or
visit http://lwtchost.ctc.edu/offices/assessment.
Up to 25% of the credits required for a degree or
certificate may be earned through prior learning
experience (PLA). Awarding of PLA credits by Lake
Washington Technical College does not guarantee or
imply that other institutions will accept such credit.
See an advisor for further information.
It is the responsibility of each student to plan for
program completion including degree requirements,
certificate requirements, and transfer requirements.
Early meetings with an educational planner will
help make certain that educational plans are on
target.
Students planning to apply for the Associate of
Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree should meet with an
educational planner to review degree planning steps
and degree requirements, degree progress, and to
complete the college admissions application.
Educational planners can refer students to an array
of college services designed to support student
success.
In addition to the COMPASS/ESL placement tests,
which are required for class placement, the college
also accepts ASSET and SLEP results taken within the
past two years. Additionally, the Assessment Center
offers the College Level Examination Program
(CLEP). Students working toward an AAS degree
who need credit in math, English, Psychology and
Sociology may challenge these courses by taking the
appropriate CLEP exam. The college also offers
General Education Development (GED) testing. GED
testing is available in English and Spanish.

open to anyone who has a high school diploma or
the General Education Development (GED)
certificate, or is at least 18 years old and is able to

Registration Office, or downloading them from our
Web site at www.lwtc.ctc.edu or e-mail
[email protected].
To assure the highest quality education and training,
the number of students who may enroll in a
program may be limited. Admission to the college
does not guarantee that all classes or all programs
can accept new students. Openings are filled on a
first-come, first-served basis. Because of the demand
for programs, persons interested in attending the
college are encouraged to apply early.
Admission entitles a person to enroll in college
classes, but does not guarantee which classes are
available. Some instructional programs, such as
Dental Hygiene and Practical Nursing, have additional procedures and requirements that must be
met before enrollment. The Admissions and
Registration Office will inform students if this
is the case.
People interested in part-time enrollment, personal
enrichment, college workshops and customized
training, non-degree or non-certificate programs or
learning assistance programs are not required to
apply for admission, except as stated above for
accumulated credits. Some classes may have
prerequisites.

DEGREE- OR CERTIFICATE-SEEKING STUDENTS
Persons seeking a degree or certificate must
demonstrate their ability to perform entry-level
reading and math skills before enrolling in a
technical training program. The college, to assess
reading and math skills, administers the COMPASS/
ESL placement tests. These placement tests assess
each student’s academic strengths and weaknesses
and determine possible learning needs. A copy of
COMPASS/ESL (or ASSET or SLEP) placement tests
results, taken within the past two years, can be
accepted for students who have taken the test
elsewhere.
The college requires a minimum placement score in
English and/or math for enrollment in some
courses. Some programs require other minimum
scores for admission. Placement score requirements for English and math are available in Student
Services and the Student Assessment Center where
tests are administered.
It is recommended that students placing into Adult
Basic Education classes, developmental education
classes, or ESL classes satisfactorily complete those
courses before enrolling in a technical training
program.
A college transcript indicating satisfactory completion of college level English and math at an
accredited college may be accepted in lieu of the
COMPASS/ESL, ASSET, or SLEP placement tests. An
evaluation of official transcripts from an accredited
college may transfer other college credits to Lake
Washington Technical College. Students need to
submit a transcript evaluation request form with
official transcripts in sealed envelopes from all
former colleges to the Admissions and
Registration Office.

opportunities.
Running Start is a program designed for high
school juniors and seniors who are ready for
college-level work, want to take college-level
courses, and want to receive both college and high
school credit while completing high school.
Admission to Lake Washington Technical College

generally responsible for fees, textbooks, supplies,
and equipment expenses in most cases. For
information, contact the Running Start coordinator
in the East Building, room E145, or call
(425)739-8107.
The Academic Skills Center offers GED preparation

TRANSCRIPTS
COMPLETE WITHDRAWAL (DROP ALL COURSES)
AUDITING A COURSE
Student transcripts are maintained in the Admissions and Registration Office. Official and unofficial
transcripts are available. Unofficial transcripts can
be obtained from the campus Web site.
A student may withdraw from all courses through
the eighth week of the quarter, or the equivalent
proportion for shorter courses or courses with
irregular start and end dates. The refund rate, if any,
would be determined by the longest course being
dropped. That rate would then be applied to the
other courses dropped at that time. It is the student’s
responsibility to drop all classes.
Official withdrawals occurring after the tenth
instructional day of the quarter are posted with a W
on the student’s transcript. A grade of W does not
count in GPA calculations. Not attending a class does
not withdraw a student or make one eligible for a
refund.
REPEATING A COURSE
Students may repeat a course for credit a maximum
of two times (courses whose content differs each
quarter may be taken multiple times and are not
considered repeats). The highest grade earned is
used. It is the student’s responsibility to notify the
Admissions and Registration Office of repeated
classes so lower grades can be excluded. The same
course cannot be counted more than once for credit
unless the content differs.
After the eighth week, an unofficial withdrawal from
the college will result in each instructor assigning
the appropriate grade. Depending on the start date
and length of the class, an early withdrawal during
the first week will not be recorded on the transcript.
PROBATION AND ACADEMIC PROGRESS
GRADUATION RESIDENCY REQUIREMENTS
The college monitors academic progress. Students
who achieve under a 2.0 grade point average for the
quarter, or overall, are subject to special advising
requirements to help them succeed.
The following are the requirements for earning
college credits toward a degree or certificate at Lake
Washington Technical College while in residence at
the college:
STUDENT RECORDS
A minimum of the last 30% of the technical
credits must be earned in residence (i.e., taken
at the college) and the final quarter must be in
residence.
Faculty may recommend waivers to the residency
requirements to the appropriate dean. The dean will
forward the waiver request to the vice president of
instructional services or designee with a recommendation. The vice president or designee will approve/
disapprove the request. Approved waivers are sent to
the Admissions and Registration Office for entry into
student records.

repeats the course as a regularly enrolled student.
Students wishing to change an audit to credit must
do so before the class starts. Audit students are
required to pay all tuition and fees.

written consent of the student has been given.
Students may declare their entire record confidential, in which case no information can be released,

Tuition and Financial Aid
Financial Aid
FINANCIAL AID
• For most aid programs, attending for the
purpose of obtaining a degree or certificate at
the college. (Some certificate programs may not
be eligible for certain types of aid. Check with
the Financial Aid Office to verify program
eligibility.)
• A U.S. citizen or an eligible non-citizen.
• Making satisfactory academic progress in a
program of study as defined by the institution’s
satisfactory progress criteria.
• Not in default on any previous student loans or
owing a refund on any grants.
• Registered for the draft with Selective Service, as
required by law.
• A high school graduate, have a GED or passing
scores on an approved ability-to-benefit test.
We encourage you to contact the Financial Aid
Office to help finance your education. Lake
Washington Technical College believes people
should have the opportunity to achieve their
educational goals.
Financial aid is available for eligible students who
enroll either to earn a certificate or a degree.
Students and their families need not be low-income
to qualify for some kinds of financial aid. Apply for
financial aid as early as possible since prequalification may take up to eight weeks after the
application has been mailed. Financial aid is
intended to add to but not replace a person’s
resources. If combined resources are not sufficient
to cover expenses, you may be eligible for financial
aid in the form of grants, scholarships, low interest
loans and employment. You must demonstrate a
financial need to be eligible for assistance. Financial
need is calculated as the difference between the cost
of attending school and what you and your family
can afford to pay.
Students who have the equivalent of a bachelor’s
degree in a foreign country are limited to applying
for loans and work-study assistance.
Students will be notified of their financial aid award
by mail. Awarding begins in May. For more information,
contact the Financial Aid Office at (425) 739-8106.
SAMPLE CALCULATION
Cost of Attendance
- Expected Family Contribution
=Financial Need
The financial aid application is your passport to
financial aid. Information on this form determines
your eligibility for grants, scholarships, work study
and low-interest loans.
FEDERAL FINANCIAL AID REFUND POLICY
Students that receive federal financial aid are
subject to the federal Return to Title IV Funds
regulations. These regulations state that aid
eligibility for a student receiving federal aid must be
recalculated under most circumstances if the
student withdraws from classes early or ceases to
attend during the quarter. Some students may owe a
repayment to the federal aid programs. These
regulations and any resulting amounts owed are
separate from and may be in addition to the
College’s own tuition refund policy. For a copy of the
Return to Title IV Funds refund policy, please
contact the Financial Aid Office.
FINANCIAL AID APPLICATION PROCEDURE
• Complete and submit the Free Application for
Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This application
collects financial data and other information
used to calculate the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) that determines a student’s eligibility
for aid. The application forms can be picked up
in the Financial Aid Office.
• Complete the Financial Aid Data Sheet and a
Satisfactory Academic Progress form and return
them to the Financial Aid Office
• Stay in touch with the Financial Aid Office to be
certain that all information has been received to
complete your file.
• Students must reapply for financial aid each year
beginning in summer quarter.

Satisfactory Academic Progress
for Financial Aid Recipients
Students receiving financial aid are required to make satisfactory academic progress. Since satisfactory
progress is a financial aid eligibility requirement, all quarters and all credits must be considered regardless of whether financial aid was received. The college’s satisfactory progress requirements for
financial aid, worker-retraining, training completion aid, work-first tuition assistance, and most veteran’s
benefits recipients are summarized below.
QUALITATIVE MEASURE
All students must be in good standing with the college and maintain quarterly grade point average (GPA) of
2.0 and at least a 2.0 cumulative grade point average.
QUANTITATIVE MEASURE
Students are expected to successfully complete the credits for which they enroll. Credits completed will be
reviewed at the end of each quarter. See the chart below to determine satisfactory progress status.

progress standards may be ineligible for financial
aid. In a few cases, there may be extraordinary
circumstances (beyond the student’s control) which
may be considered. A written appeal, along with
supporting documentation, must be submitted to the
Financial Aid Office. The Financial Aid Office
reserves the right to determine continued eligibility.
Students receiving aid are subject to federal and
state refund and repayment regulations, as well the
college’s own refund policy. Students withdrawing
partially or totally may be required to repay part or
all of their financial aid. A student who has not
attended any classes is not eligible for aid in that
quarter.

CREDITS AND CREDIT LOAD
LAKE WASHINGTON TECHNICAL
ACADEMY DIPLOMA
A Lake Washington Technical Academy high school
diploma is awarded to students who complete all
OSPI requirements while enrolled as students in
good standing. This is a total of 11 high school
credits in core requirements of English, Math,
Science, Social Sciences, and 11 high school credits
in electives. A total of 22 credits are required for the
Academy high school diploma. Commencement is
held in June of each academic year.
The academic year is divided into four quarters of
approximately eleven weeks each (the length of
individual courses may differ). In order to
complete certificate or degree requirements in the
prescribed number of quarters, a course load per
quarter will be approximately 20 credits. A lecture
class which meets five hours per week for one
quarter will yield five quarter credits. Lab courses
require ten hours of class time per week for five
credits. Special permission is needed to carry more
than 25 credits.
HIGH SCHOOL COMPLETION
FULL- AND PART-TIME STUDENT STATUS
An adult high school diploma is awarded through
LWTC for adults 19 years of age or older who did
not complete requirements for a high school
diploma. Minimum credits required are 19 high
school credits. For information and evaluation of an
official high school transcript, contact High School
Programs in E145, call (425)739-8107 or e-mail
[email protected].
Students enrolled in 12 or more credits are
considered full-time. Some programs may require
higher quarterly credit loads to complete requirements in a specified time period. Some external
agencies may use different credit values to calculate
full-time status.
Students registered for fewer than full-time credits
as defined above are considered part-time. Note:
for financial aid purposes, the financial aid office
should be consulted for definitions of three-quarter
time, half-time, and less than half-time since the
level of enrollment affects aid eligibility.
COOPERATIVE EDUCATION
Cooperative education is a process that draws upon
community resources to expand students’ learning
outside the classroom. It offers students the
opportunity to blend classroom theory with
planned, supervised field experience in areas
relating to their career choices. They work with a
cooperative education coordinator, faculty member
and employer to identify and develop specific skills
and learning goals to be gained through the
encounter.
GRADING
Lake Washington Technical College uses a numeric
grading system for most courses. Instructors may
report grades from 4.0 to 0.7 in 0.1 increments
and the grade of 0.0. Grades in the range of 0.6 to
0.1 are not assigned. A grade of 0.7 is passing in
that it earns credits. However, a minimum grade of
2.0 is required for a number of purposes, including graduation, technical course grades, and
General Education requirements. Numerical grades
may be considered equivalent to letter grades as
follows:
Students work on paid, or in some cases, unpaid
training assignments while integrating specific
periods of on-campus study with employment. The
employer pays the student.

R-REPEATING A COURSE
Letter
A Excellent performance
AB+
B Above-average performance
BC+
C Average performance
CD+
D Minimum performance
DF Unsatisfactory performance
The qualifier R on a transcript means a course has
been repeated, and is excluded from credits and
grade point average. A student may repeat any
course taken at LWTC in which a grade of less than
2.0 or a U was earned. All grades will still appear on
the transcript whether repeated or not. If the most
recent grade is lower than the earlier grade, the
student may request the registrar to count just the
higher grade in the GPA.
S/U-SATISFACTORY/UNSATISFACTORY
S/U grading is used for work experience, clinical,
and skill development courses. The S indicates a
satisfactory level of performance by the student. By
assigning an S grade, the instructor certifies a
performance level of at least a 2.0 or higher. Credit
is earned but the S does not affect the GPA calculation. A U grade is assigned when the level of
performance is below 2.0. A U grade does not earn
credit and does not affect the GPA.
I-INCOMPLETE
An incomplete grade may be given if the student is
doing passing work, is unable to complete the
requirements of the course during the quarter due
to reasons beyond his/her control (accident, illness,
death in family, etc.), and can successfully complete
requirements of the course with no additional
instruction. Because of this, the student does not reregister for the course in a later quarter to remove
the Incomplete within the deadline period. When an
I (Incomplete) grade is given by an instructor, a
contract is filed with Admissions and Registration
stating the work necessary to remove the Incomplete, a date for completion, and the grade earned if
not completed. Incomplete coursework must be
completed by the required date as established by the
instructor (this date may be no later than the end of
the subsequent quarter of enrollment). At the time
of graduation, the Incomplete will be changed to a
0.0 or to the grade assigned on the contract, if one
is available.
Z-UNOFFICIAL WITHDRAWAL
Students who attend briefly, rarely, or not at all, and
who fail to withdraw from a course with a W grade,
may be assigned a grade of Z if appropriate in the
judgment of an administrator. The Z grade does not
earn credit and does not count in the GPA
calculation.
W-WITHDRAWAL
A student may officially withdraw from any course
through the eighth week of the quarter (or the
equivalent for a short course or courses with
irregular start or end dates) by completing a
withdrawal form and submitting it to Admissions
and Registration. Official withdrawals occurring
after the tenth instructional day of the quarter are
posted with a W on the student’s permanent
transcript. Withdrawals do not count in the GPA
calculations and cannot be assigned by faculty in the
grading process.
NG-NO GRADE
NG means the course is “not graded” for any student
taking the course. This applies, for example, to
some non-credit courses. It would not appear on
graded, credit courses. NG does not affect the GPA
and does not earn credits. It does not indicate
whether a student attended, just that the student
enrolled.
Y-IN PROGRESS
A Y grade is given to students who are doing passing
coursework but need additional instruction and
time to complete course requirements. Students are
required to re-register for the course and pay all
tuition and any other charges. The Y remains on the
transcript for the quarter assigned, while the final
grade will be posted to the quarter in which the
N-AUDIT
Audit means the student registered on a spaceavailable basis to attend the class and to listen, but
not do graded work. The N grade does not earn
credit and does not affect the GPA. See the Registration Section for more information.

no credit and does not affect the GPA.
* (ASTERISK)
This symbol (asterisk) means the grade has not been
assigned yet. The student should consult with his or
her instructor. This grade does not affect the GPA and
does not earn credits. Note however that a * grade
could prevent a student from receiving honors,
impede financial aid eligibility, block graduation, or
result in a student being considered in academic
difficulty. It is important that all enrolled courses be
assigned valid grades.

Total grade points: 18.5 + 20 = 38.5.
Total credits taken for a decimal grade: 5 + 5 = 10.
GPA: 38.5 grade points divided by 10 credits = 3.85.
GRADE AND RECORDS APPEAL
If there is some tangible evidence that an improper
grade was given, a student must appeal directly within
60 days of the official ending date of the quarter.
Students planning to appeal a grade should retain all
tests, papers and other evidence they may have to
support the appeal.
The process for appealing is as follows:
1. Meet with the course instructor first.
2. If not satisfied, meet with the instructional dean,
who will render a decision.
3. If not satisfied, information is presented to the
judicial board, which will make a recommendation to the appropriate vice president.
4. If not satisfied, student requests a hearing before
the appropriate vice president, who renders a
decision.
5. If not satisfied, student appeals to the president,
who issues the final decision.
In general, students should request any correction to
their records within 60 days of the end of the quarter.
GRADE POINT AVERAGE (GPA)
The grade point average indicates the general
achievement of the student. The quarterly GPA
includes only classes for that specific quarter; the
cumulative GPA includes all classes which comprise
the student’s academic history at LWTC.

GRADE CHANGE
Grades may be changed by instructors only in cases
of clerical errors or subsequent completion of
coursework. It is the student’s responsibility to
initiate a grade change with the instructor.
A grade change form must be completed, signed by
the instructor, and submitted to the Admissions and
Registration Office before a grade change becomes
official. Students have 60 days from the end of the
quarter to request a grade change (deadlines for
Incomplete grades differ).
GRADE REPORTS
After the end of each quarter, grades can be
accessed through the college’s Internet and Touchtone
telephone services. Official transcripts are available
through the office of Admissions and Registration
and unofficial transcripts are available on the Web. It
is important that students check grades at the end of
each quarter and address questions promptly. See
Grade Changes above.
CLASS ATTENDANCE
Regular student attendance in classes is strongly
encouraged and may count as a percentage of the
grade in any given class. All coursework must be
completed to the satisfaction of the instructor. The
student is responsible for initiating make-up work.
GPA is calculated by dividing the grade points by the
number of credits of the courses for which the
student was awarded a decimal grade. Grade points
are calculated by multiplying the number of credits
by the numeric value of the grade for each course.
2 0 0 3 - 2 0 0 4
The GPA is calculated for each quarter and also for
all quarters combined, which is referred to as a
cumulative GPA.
