First, students need to set up their Willamette network account. Then they will be able to complete their online Advising and Course Registration Questionnaire, as well as their topic preferences for College Colloquium, a required course for all first-year students that introduces them to the academic environment of Willamette. Students will learn by the end of May to which Colloquium section they are assigned. Starting in mid-May, we will begin contacting students who have submitted their surveys to schedule an advising and registration appointment for June or early July. To prepare for this appointment, students should identify several courses they might want to take — advice on how to choose is available here and here. During their appointment, students will discuss these choices with an advising counselor and register for three courses in addition to their College Colloquium. Once classes begin, students’ College Colloquium professors will become their academic advisors until they declare a major.
