The First Six Weeks is Phase IV of CWU’s fall new student orientation program and part of the University 101 class. Orientation & Transition Programs, in collaboration with faculty and staff, facilitate programs across campus. Topics address the academic and transitional issues first year students typically face during the first six weeks of their college career. In order to direct the programming efforts during First Six Weeks, we categorize each event into the four pillars described on pages 4-5. Please be sure to review the instructions for UNIV 101 on the following page. See the list of programs/activities below each pillar overview.
First Six Weeks is coordinated by the office for Orientation & Transition Programs.Direct questions or inquiries to CWU.Orientation@cwu.edu or 509.963.2735
STUDENT SUCCESSStudent success is defined as students achieving academic, personal and professional growth through educationally purposeful programs, events, services and activities within and beyond the classroom. Success as a student thrives on the foundation of a welcoming and inclusive university environment and cannot be achieved without a supportive CWU community.
UNIVERSITY 101 INSTRUCTIONSWelcome to Phase IV of your transition to Central Washington University. Please carefully read the three steps listed below to ensure that you receive full credit for your First Six Weeks assignment in your UNIV 101 class.
DESIGNER: SLOANE MILLER, CLASS OF 2020
Take a look through this booklet to find programs, activities and events you might be interested in. All students are required to attend at least three sessions, each from separate pillars, but don’t let that limit you! These programs are designed to lay a foundation for your success; so the more you attend, the better prepared you will be to overcome challenges along your path to graduation.
STEP 3In Canvas, submit proof of your participation and attendance, via your class section. See your course syllabus for details.
