Tuition includes a single room, some meals, materials, and administrative and faculty support for inter-session assignments. Admission to PCBS is granted after a review of an applicant’s online application and receipt of the registration fee, which is non-refundable. Once an applicant is accepted and has paid the full tuition amount, room reservations will be secured, and applicants will begin to receive other communications from PCBS.

All classes, meals, and rooms for PCBS students are located on the University of Washington campus, set in the scenic Pacific Northwest on the shores of Lake Washington. PCBS session attendees share a rich classroom experience while enjoying the natural beauty and excitement of one of the country’s most beautiful destinations.

Three resident sessions are held during the last two weeks of August for three consecutive years.

Pacific Coast Banking School is preparing for its 89th resident session, and applications for the upcoming class are now closed.

2027 applications will be open in the fall of 2026.
