GET READY FOR THE NEXT BIG ADVENTURE

Last Minute Reminders:

Mandatory Trainings:

  • To fulfill both state and federal mandates, all incoming UWL students are expected to complete online training courses before the beginning of the fall semester for the following items:
    • Sexual Assault Prevention Education
    • Alcohol Education for College
    • Hazing Awareness and Prevention for Students
  • These courses were emailed to all incoming UWL students at the end of July. Remind students to check their spam folders if they have trouble locating the trainings.

Student Employee Onboarding:

  • Student employees should carefully monitor their emails for instructions on the requirements to fully complete their onboarding.
  • While UWL uses an onboarding system that allows employees to easily complete most of their new hire paperwork online. Employees will still be responsible for providing I-9 identity verification documents to the HR office. Onboarding and the I-9 verification should be completed prior to the employees' first day of employment.

Dining Services:

  • From sit-down meals to grab-and-go options, the Student Union and Whitney Dining Center offer a wide variety of dining choices to fit your schedule. With multiple venues across campus, you’ll find flexible, convenient options all day long.
  • To explore menus and locations during the school year, download the Dine On Campus app.
  • Manage Your Dining & Campus Cash
    The GET Mobile app lets students:
    • Create a digital Eagle ID
    • View Campus Cash and meal plan balances
    • Track remaining meals for the week
    • Report a lost or stolen Eagle ID
  • Parents and guardians can also use GET Mobile to deposit funds directly into student accounts.
