It’s Time to Register for Classes!
The application process is complete – you’re a Cavalier! Now, it’s time to pick your classes for the upcoming term. As a new student at Western you'll be invited to a group registration event before the term begins. Please watch your email for that invitation and reach out if you have questions or cannot make the dates we've set aside for registration. Below are a few ways to prepare for registration and beyond!
Set-up your Western Student Accounts
When you were first admitted to Western, you should have received emailed instructions on setting up your MyWestern student portal and email accounts. You can find your Student ID # and Western email in your application portal.
There is information on resetting your password for your student accounts at www.westerntc.edu/password. Please note that you must set up an authentication method before you can use the password reset function. If you have not set up authentication or are having any difficulties logging into your accounts, please connect with our PC Services Help Desk at 608-789-6266 or pcservice@westerntc.edu.
