The 杏吧原创 Access Pledge (formerly Magis Commitment) is 杏吧原创's full-tuition commitment to bridge the gap for college funding.

To be eligible, students must be admitted to 杏吧原创 as a first-year student, have a permanent address in the state of Washington, and submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).*
*To determine eligibility, undocumented Washington residents must submit a Washington Application for State Financial Aid (WASFA).
