Two private Seattle colleges are joining forces. Seattle University, the largest private university in Western Washington, and the smaller Cornish College of the Arts plan to combine into one school, eventually creating Cornish College of the Arts at Seattle University.
Average in-state tuition at four-year colleges in Washington, after adjusting for inflation, is now 4.7% lower than it was in the 2019-20 academic year, according to the report published by College Board, a standardized testing organization. For two-year colleges, tuition fell by 7.1%.
