Welcome!

The Academic Advising & Student Achievement Center welcomes you to find the support you need from our team to have the best experience possible here at Western. As you can see throughout this website, we have many ways to support you as an undergraduate student. Our professional staff and teams of student employees are dedicated to your success through conversations and resources around academic plans and personal life goals and through the programs and services we offer that focus on your personal achievement. 

Online Services & Systems Unavailable

Several Western online services and systems will be unavailable Thursday, March 28th from 10am until Friday, March 29th at 5pm. Those that impact academic planning and advising include:

  • Web4U, including Registration and Waitlisting
  • Degree Works
  • Removal of 105 credit holds

This outage will limit the tools we can use during advising meetings.  We apologize for the inconvenience and will do our best to assist you during this time. Advising topics that typically don’t require these online tools include: major/minor exploration, campus resource referrals, academic success strategies, etc.
