The Cornerstone Society: A Student Referral Community

cornerstonesociety

Student referrals are one of the most important ways our alumni and friends can give back to University of Western States (UWS). Because of that we consider our student referrers to be the cornerstone of our university. The Cornerstone Society is a network that is a critical part of how talented professionals find their way to UWS programs. 

Do you know someone who is interested in learning more about a UWS program?

Share with them information about UWS programs. Have them submit their information in the request information form and our admissions team will reach out to them.  

If the person decides to apply to UWS, be sure they include your contact information as the referrer on their application so you can receive the benefits of being a Cornerstone Society member.
