Transfer, Nontraditional & Veteran Students

UW Orientation

The University of Wyoming has a mandatory advising policy for all students (except non-degree graduate and distance students). Some colleges utilize professional advising staff, while in some colleges faculty advise students. Either way, each semester a student must see his or her advisor to discuss a schedule of classes before he or she can register. Advisors are the only individuals authorized to release PERC (Personal Enrollment Registration Code) numbers each semester.

Summer/Fall 2017 Transfer, Nontraditional, and Veteran Student Orientations have concluded for the summer. 

Students who need to register for classes and register for a One Stop Wednesday.  Click here for additional information or register for a session through your personalized checklist in WyoRecords, located on WyoWeb. Please note it may take up to one business day after you pay your enrollment deposit for your Orientation link to be available on your WyoWeb.

Academic Advising

Each academic college, as well as the School of Energy Resources and the Haub School of Environment and Natural Resources, has an advising coordinator for transfer students; there is an advising coordinator for undeclared students, as well. These individuals are available to assist you if you are not able to attend a Transfer, Non-Traditional, or Veteran Student Orientation. When appropriate, they will help get you connected with your home academic department and a faculty advisor.
