Examples of such documentation are a marriage certificate, birth certificate, or court order for legal name change. Any change of address should be reported immediately to the Registrar s Office. In addition to the regular registration period, WNMU offers continuing students an opportunity to advance register at an earlier date to allow time for effective use of academic advising services and to permit access to classes which fill up early in the regular registration period. Advance registration for the fall semester typically begins in April, and for the spring semester in late October. Undergraduate students are required to declare a major no later than the semester in which they complete 48 credit hours.
Continued enrollment is contingent upon the declaration of a major.
Students who wish to declare a major in a program that has a formal admission process such as Nursing, Occupational Therapy Assistant, Education or Social Work must be admitted to the program before declaring it as a major. New freshmen, and transfer students, as well as students with an undeclared major are required to see an advisor before advance registering for classes. Permits to schedule classes may be obtained in the Academic Support Center for these students. Students registering for more than two courses or more than seven hours whichever is greater during any semester must have their advisor s signature permit to schedule classes before registering at the Registrar s Office. Although a student may register during the first two weeks of classes, classes may be closed and a full schedule may be difficult to obtain.
