Washington College was a school in Tacoma, Washington. It was founded in Seattle, Washington in 1884 with an initial enrollment of 45 students.[1] Washington College was sponsored by the Episcopal Church. Its companion school in Tacoma was the Annie Wright Seminary for Girls.[1]

The 1891–1892 school year was the last with students. A proposed spring 1893 re-opening was coincident with the Panic of 1893, and never took place. The school officially closed in 1896, with its remaining assets dispersed to Annie Wright Seminary.[1]
