Academic Advising and Registration
Undergraduate
Upon admission to the University, all students are assigned an academic advisor based on his or her major who assists with course selection and academic progress to ensure timely graduation. The Academic Advising Center is located on the first floor of the library. All students are also assigned a faculty advisor in their major field of study to facilitate academic program planning, career exploration, and experiential learning.
To enroll in classes, students may consult with both advisors, but students with 90 hours or less must obtain approval from the Academic Advising Center. Students may register online or in the Office of Student Records. Online registration is available to all students except those enrolling for the first time at the University, and probationary students, which must register in the Office of Student Records.
Returning students are encouraged to register online during open enrollment in the semester preceding enrollment to avoid a late fee. Students waiting to register until classes begin will not be able to register online and must go to the Office of Student Records to register, and a late fee will be added to their registration fees. Course schedules and information on registration times is available through Ramlink at least a year in advance of registration. Information on registration times is available at txwes.edu/academics/registrar/ each semester on the Registrar’s webpage.
