Fall 2015 registration

Fall registration opened this morning. Registration priority is based on credit hours earned. The schedule for this week is as follows:

Priority registration goes through Tuesday, March 31 when freshmen with zero credit hours can register starting at noon. The complete schedule can be found on the Registrar's Office website.

This day in history

Registration has come a long way—from standing in long lines at Read Field House to the ability to register online. Thirty years ago students would have received a paper copy of the Schedule of Classes which detailed the required registration materials. Tuition for entering freshmen in 1985 was $46.25 per credit hour.

Midterm grading

The midterm grade deadline has been extended through the end of the day. The midterm grade worksheet will be available until 8 a.m. tomorrow morning.

Report student academic concerns

Monday, March 23 is the last day students can withdraw from a spring semester course. It is important that we make every effort this week to reach out to students who are not attending class or who are not performing well. The Report Student Academic Concern link is provided on the faculty menu in GoWMU for instructors to report an academic concern, excessive absences or missing multiple assignments.

Reauthorization

The online student information system is now closed to users. Supervisors have until the end of the day—Wednesday, March 18—to process approvals for their employees. Users that did not submit their reauthorization online will now be locked out and will have to process paper requests to unlock their account. Please contact the Registrar's Office if you have questions.
