New Student Orientation New Student Orientation is held at the beginning of the fall and spring semesters, and during June, and July. It is intended to help new and potential students become acquainted with the campus, registration procedures, advisement, testing, and counseling activities. Special sessions offer information about policies and regulations affecting students, opportunities for developing special interests, student organizations and activities. All freshmen and new students are expected to attend an orientation session. Special sessions are also scheduled for parents at each orientation.
Information is provided on academics, finances, financial aid, and campus life.
All parents are encouraged to attend one of the orientation sessions. Details will be mailed to prospective students and parents after students have applied for admission. The Office of Multicultural Affairs, in conjunction with the entire WNMU community, seeks to assist, support and encourage minority students in achieving their educational goals. The Coordinator of Multicultural Affairs acts as a liaison between the minority student and the University to facilitate communication. A primary goal is to assess the needs of minority students and respond to those needs as resources permit.
