WSU uses Smartsheet, a FERPA and HIPAA compliant platform, to securely process your residency application and attached documents. We will email your WSU Email address unless you are newly admitted and do not have access to your WSU email. Emails from us may come via Smartsheet; look in your WSU email spam folder if you have not heard from us. Allow a few weeks for processing.
