WCS Students
The Wolf Connection System (WCS) is WOU’s student success network, here to help you make appointments with advisors and tutors. Professors also use WCS to refer students who might benefit from extra support or who are doing well to touch base with student support services. If you get an email about being referred, it’s a good thing! It means that your professor knows who you are and wants to support your success at WOU.
MAKING AN APPOINTMENT
Several departments on campus use WCS for appointments (see more details below). To schedule an appointment, follow these steps:
1. Log into the WOU Portal
2. Select the blue WCS icon
3. Click on the blue Get Support button
4. Select the type of service you are looking for and then select an appointment reason.
5. Select a date and then on Find an Appointment time.
6. Select a time and the location for the appointment that works best for you. You can use the filters on the left hand side to select specific people (such as your assigned advisor) or a specific location.
7. Review the appointment details, add your phone number for text reminders (if desired) and add any comments you would like the person you are meeting with to see prior to your appointment. Click on the Schedule button at the bottom to confirm the appointment. You will receive an appointment confirmation and reminder via email (and text message if selected). Note: if you select a Virtual Appointment location, your confirmation email will include details for how to connect for your appointment. If you are select a Phone Appointment location, add your phone number to the comments so the person you are meeting with can contact you at the time of your appointment.
