Academic Advising

Western has a holistic model of academic advisement which provides every student with an advisor starting with the University Advisement Center, and then moving to a Faculty Advisor from their declared major.

Students are responsible for initiating contact with their assigned advisor early in each semester to form a relationship with their advisor and in order to:

  1. Create a plan and course-sequencing layout toward graduation.
  2. Once a plan is in place, and course selections have been reviewed, a registration PIN is provided by your advisor.

You may access your advisor information and specific registration date by logging on the BannerWeb (you may be asked to login to your WCSU account). Click the Banner tab, then Student Services, then click Check My Registration Status.

If you are having difficulty contacting your assigned advisor, please contact the academic department chairperson for your major, or the department secretary. You may look up contact information in the on-line directory for the university. https://www.wcsu.edu/directory/
