Heritage University occupies a 48-acre campus in Toppenish, Washington, situated in the Yakima Valley on lands of the Yakama Nation, approximately 20 miles southeast of Yakima. The institution, which evolved from Fort Wright College in 1982, serves a diverse student population with a significant representation of Native American and Hispanic students. Heritage operates as a private, non-denominational university offering undergraduate and graduate programs, with notable strengths in education, social work, and allied health fields. The campus features modern classroom buildings and student facilities integrated into the rural agricultural setting of central Washington, with most students commuting to campus rather than residing in student housing. Heritage maintains partnerships with local tribal communities and agricultural industries, providing specialized educational programs that serve the region's distinct economic and cultural needs.
