Planning Your General Education Experience
Academic Requirements (AR) Report
Your Academic Requirements Report Tracks your progress upon entry to CWU and through degree completion. General Education Program requirements are included in this report. By accessing your report, you will be able to verify classes you have completed, those you have registered for, and those you still need to take.
Advising at CWU
Advising at CWU is comprised of three areas to best meet the timely needs of students as they progress through their academic journey.
- Undergraduate Advising students who have not yet decided or declared their major at CWU. If you need to contact us, please click here or call (509) 963-2722.
- Major Advising serves students who are declared or want to apply and declare their major. Declared students will work with College specific Advisors.
- Other Advising Programs are specialty programs at CWU. These programs have students work with a specialized advisor from their program in addition to the College Advisor.
Program Planning and Progress
Students have an active role in tailoring their General Education experience to their own interests, needs, and desires. The populated framework, course catalog, and program rules are the tools students use to identify preferences and options as they establish an individualized completion plan. Scheduling and course availability play a part in completion, making early and regular attention to your plan and academic requirements report helpful in completion success.
