Registration
tay on track for graduation and make the most out of your WMU experience by following these registration planning tips:
- Meet with your advisor for help selecting which courses to take.
- Check Degree Works (undergraduates only) to see the courses and requirements you still need to complete to receive your degree.
- Review the schedule of course offerings to determine what sections are being offered.
- Verify through goWMU that all holds have been cleared that would prevent you from registering.
