Your student’s Nebraska Wesleyan experience starts soon, and we want to ensure a smooth transition. That means completing this list of ‘to-dos’ before the semester starts. Please encourage your student complete these steps by August 21.

Block schedules for Prairie Wolves Welcome.

All new students are required to attend events August 21–25. 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 log into Self Service to view tuition statements and make sure that financial aid and scholarships have all been applied to their account.

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.

These forms are necessary for Student Health to serve your student.

Fill out parking permit form.

If your student intends to park a vehicle on campus, they’ll need to complete this parking tag request form.

Complete the Year-one College Behavior Profile.

You’ll receive a letter with information on how to complete this survey in late July or early August. If your student needs additional assistance, please have them contact Kevin Bollinger at kbolling [at] nebrwesleyan.edu (kbolling[at]nebrwesleyan[dot]edu).

If you have any questions about this list, please contact the Admissions Office: (402) 465-2218, admissions [at] nebrweseyan.edu (admissions[at]nebrweseyan[dot]edu). We’re here to help.

We look forward to welcoming you to campus soon!
