Opening the Door to Opportunity for All of Washington

"It's not the dollar amount attached to the opportunity, but the doors it opens and the ripple effect it creates...the value is immense; it's priceless."

An integral part of the University of Washington for more than 100 years, Continuum goes beyond traditional higher education to ensure everyone can access UW’s excellence and resources to attain the education they need to thrive.

Through our scholarship program, we support learners and (indirectly) their families and communities. We’ve awarded nearly $600,000 in scholarships over the past seven years, easing the financial burden for students and helping them build the skills to advance their careers, launch new ones and positively impact the world.

With support and partnership, we create enhanced resources to support professional development, credential attainment, program innovation and community collaborations to deliver on the promise of a UW education — for all of Washington.
