Finishing that to-do list

Your student’s Nebraska Wesleyan experience starts soon, and we want to ensure a smooth transition. That means completing these ‘to-dos’ before the semester starts. 

Please encourage your student complete these steps before August 19. 

Block schedules for Prairie Wolves Welcome. 

All new students are required to attend events August 19-23. They should not schedule work, appointments or other obligations on those dates. 

Check email. 

We send university updates, Prairie Wolves Welcome details and information from professors to your student’s NWU email address. 

Order books. 

Encourage your student to log into Self Service to access their fall schedule. Each course includes a “Bookstore Information” link, which lists the materials they’ll need for that class. 

Check finances. 

Your student can also use Self Service to view tuition statements and make sure that financial aid and scholarships have all been applied to their account. As a reminder, fall semester bills are due August 4. 

Submit final transcripts. 

Students must send official transcripts to the Registrar’s Office. If they’re still finishing up some high school coursework, make sure they request that final transcripts be sent to NWU. 

Return immunization and medical history forms. 

Student Health needs these forms completed before we can provide care for your student. 

Fill out parking permit form. 

All students are required to fill out the parking permit form. If they do not intend to have a vehicle on campus, they can note that on the form. 

Complete the Year-one College Behavior Profile. 

You’ll receive an email with information on how to complete this survey in late July. If your student needs additional assistance, please have them contact Director of Student Integrity Kevin Bollinger at kbolling [at] nebrwesleyan.edu (kbolling[at]nebrwesleyan[dot]edu). 

We look forward to welcoming you to campus soon!
