Cascadia is a public community college that offers two-year degrees for transfer to universities, two Bachelor of Applied Science (one in Sustainable Practices and one in Mobile Application Development), certificate programs, adult basic education, High School+, ESL for adults, and a broad range of non-credit courses and professional training. The college also conducts business-specific customized contract education and skill-training.
Cascadia is located along Beardslee Boulevard in Bothell, Washington at the intersection of I-405 and SR-522.
Co-located with the University of Washington Bothell, the campus location was planned to serve the fast-growing area of northeast King and south Snohomish Counties. Fifty-eight acres on the campus are under long-term restoration to high- functioning wetlands. A paved trail with educational signage borders the wetlands and is open to the public. The campus design has won the highest prize awarded by the American Institute of Architects for “drawing together the learning community and protecting their communal experience while retaining its connection to the world outside.”
Cascadia’s legislatively assigned service district includes the cities of Bothell, Woodinville, Kirkland, Kenmore, Duvall, Carnation, Sammamish, Redmond, and many smaller communities.
