Welcome! We can’t wait for you to get here – it is going to be a Great Year!

We are just finishing up the Academic Year at Western Oregon University – but that doesn’t mean that we are not thinking and planning for Fall Term, 2019 – and your arrival here on campus. It will be here before any of us know it!

Regardless of who you are or where you will be coming from – a lot will happen between now and when you arrive on campus to begin the chapter of your life entitled Western Oregon University. First and foremost, we want to welcome you to Western Oregon University – we really are so very excited for you to arrive in the fall!

Check out our Welcome Video – created by one of our current residents, and the Hawaii Ambassador to WOU. Marisa and her friends will welcome you and have some great advice for you – and your family – as you begin your transition from home – wherever that might be – to Western Oregon University.

OPPORTUNITY AWAITS! Get involved right now . . .
