Advising

You can discover the name and the contact information of your advisor by logging into your WINGS account. Listed on the right side of the student center is your "Program Advisor." 

Note: If you are an undeclared major in the CBA your advisor will be a faculty member from the Academic Advising Center.

Find your registration appointment by logging onto WINGS. On the right side of the page click "Enrollment Dates." To change terms click "Details." The number of credits you earned determines the appointment time of your registration.

If a class that you want to take is full add your name to the waiting list for that particular class. If other students drop the class, depending on your placement, you may get into the class for the semester. If you don't get into your class, the classes rotate through, so you will get into the class before you graduate.

Note: For IS 220, we also offer additional online sections during summer session.

Declare or change your CBA major or minor by completing the required online form. 

The UW System maintains the Transfer Wisconsin website learn. The site provides information about how courses transfer in the University of Wisconsin, Wisconsin Technical College, and Tribal College systems. Use Transferology, our online tool to view course equivalencies, enter and store coursework, and even request an evaluation of transfer work against a program. Transferology is designed to give prospective students current information about transferring UW System and Wisconsin Technical College System credits to any institution in the UW System.

Additional information may be found on the Admissions page or the Academic Advising Center page.
