Registration Hints [pg. 19]
Before Registering:
All students: You should check and print your degree audit, that is, the list of the classes you
have taken and the grades received. If you are a first-semester freshman, it will be a very short
audit. Use your audit along with the class schedule pamphlet to create a preliminary schedule.
Check the catalogue to determine what courses remain to be taken in your major as well as the
required General Education courses you have yet to take (don’t forget the note on gen ed!) It’s a
good idea to take this preliminary material to your registration appointment with your advisor.
(You can access the audit by going to the WSC home page where you will choose WSC Online
Resources and click WebCat. Click On Line Services, then Enter Student Services and enter
your code/password.)
Survival Tips [pg. 7]
Every student should request a WSC Catalog from the Records and Registration Office in the
Hahn Administration Building. Be aware that this Survival Guide in no way replaces that
information.
Please note the Mission Statement and read over the General Information and the
Undergraduate Programs in the first part of the catalog. Much of this material can be skimmed
over but do pay attention to the text that apply to you.
Locker assignments are given out the beginning of first semester. Signs will be posted giving
details of the procedure.
In addition to class hours, the Studio Arts facilities are also available during evening hours;
check with instructors for current schedule. |
