The application deadline is February 1 for fall quarter transfer admission.

All application materials must be received by the deadline. Incomplete applications will not be considered. Both applications request a list of coursework in progress, a ranking of Vascular, General or Cardiac tracks and essays describing your interest in Diagnostic Ultrasound and Seattle University. 

All students have the opportunity to rank their interest in a vascular, general or cardiac sonography track focus.

  • To apply as an incoming first-year student, contact the Seattle University Admissions Office
  • To apply as a transfer student or post-bacc student for the BS degree, post-baccalaureate degree, or post-baccalaureate certificate, contact Transfer Admissions or email us. 
  • Internal transfers (students who have already started at SU) are admitted on a space-available basis due to the constraints with clinical placements and the need to limit the size of each cohort.
