Your first year of college can be a time of great excitement, unexpected challenges, and lots of unfamiliar faces and experiences. But no need to worry… you're not alone! New Student Services/Family Outreach is here to help you feel more comfortable and confident at WWU.

Our diverse team of Orientation Student Advisors will share with you their wealth of knowledge and "insider" experiences, and introduce you to the rich traditions, culture and values that make Western distinct.

Throughout the year, you will receive a weekly e-newsletter keeping you up-to-date on important deadlines and campus events. You'll be invited to participate in quarterly service-learning projects and other community activities. And don't forget to utilize our Web site for online information, resources and support.

Please feel free to call upon New Student Services/Family Outreach at any time. We wish you the very best at Western, and look forward to helping you succeed!
