Everything student-athletes need to know to stay eligible and represent WOU.
Welcome & Mission
Welcome to the 2020-21 academic year at Western Oregon University. You are an important part of the campus community as a student-athlete and have already proven your ability to succeed academically and your athletic talent. This website is designed to provide you with information, including important policies, to keep you eligible to play and moving towards the ultimate goal – a college degree.
This is your guide to what will be required and expected of you as a member of the Wolves Athletics department. Every organization has rules and guidelines that need to be honored; this handbook contains ours. Compliance with these rules is not optional.
The mission of intercollegiate athletics at Western Oregon is to provide athletic programs that contribute in an effective and meaningful manner to the achievement of the broader goals of the University. Guided by the Constitution of Division II of the NCAA, the Athletics program should enhance the total educational experience of students, promote the matriculation and retention of students, advance the reputation of Western Oregon, and cultivate loyalty and support of students, alumni and the community at large.
