WVU College Knowledge COLLEGE KNOWLEDGE YOUR VIRTUAL NSO COMPANION WELCOME TO THE WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY FAMILY I am so pleased your student has chosen West Virginia University as their new home. Soon they will embark on an extraordinary adventure that will shape the rest of their life. In these unprecedented times of social distancing, it is more important than ever to look toward the future. Although we must remain flexible as we adapt to a changing world, our commitment to providing students with high-quality education and an extraordinary college experience will never waver. Parents and families, although the world has changed, one thing has not. Your student’s health and happiness are our top priority. And together, as partners, we will help them reach their full potential in a supportive, inspiring and nurturing environment. After all, you’re a Mountaineer now, too. I encourage you to investigate the boundless opportunities that await you and your student — opportunities that will allow you to make a connection to your student’s new home while allowing them to craft a personalized and productive path to success. I look forward to the future, when I can welcome both you and your student to campus in person. 2 NO MATTER THE PATH YOUR STUDENT CHOOSES, AT WVU, THEY’LL NEVER HAVE TO GO IT ALONE. We’ve included info in this guide to help you and your student on your WVU journey. Consider this your go-to resource for the start of the fall 2020 semester, complete with a checklist to help keep you on track. We explain everything from how to stay connected while your student is on campus to tips and tools you’ll want to refer back to over the next four years and beyond. And while we can’t wait to meet you and your student in person, we’ve included some contacts and ways to reach us from anywhere with any question you might have. After all, you’re a Mountaineer now, too. And once a Mountaineer, always a Mountaineer. Let’s get started. 3 WHAT HAPPENS AT ORIENTATION We’ve moved New Student Orientation (NSO) to an entirely virtual experience — and registration is open. Just go to orientation.wvu.edu to get started. Your student will have the chance to learn about residential life/housing, financial aid, academic expectations for freshmen, meet and ask questions with current WVU students, interact with other incoming Mountaineers, and schedule courses for the fall semester. Virtual NSO will include: A self-paced, online program Follow-up phone calls to complete your fall class schedule Online conversations with current students, faculty and staff If your student had registered previously for an on-campus session, they don’t need to register again; their registration will be switched to the virtual program. All students registered for NSO will receive a link to the Virtual NSO portal. Students should complete the Virtual NSO portal as soon as possible so they can proceed with pre-advising and advising appointments (signing up for fall classes). There also will be virtual activities in June and throughout the summer, so make sure your student checks their email regularly for updates! It all begins now. Your student is launching an incredible journey that will lead to more than just a degree. Take the first steps toward finding their purpose and the path to get there. 4 ACADEMICS AND COURSE REGISTRATION Soon your student will start building their path. We’re here to help you — and them — prepare for a great future. ADVISING AND COURSE SCHEDULING Advising is an integral part of building a path to your student’s future. For the fall 2020 semester, we are streamlining the course registration process with block scheduling, which will give students and families some peace of mind knowing their student’s first semester will offer the best foundation for success. Once they have completed all NSO requirements, students may review their course schedule at portal.wvu.edu. WHAT IS BLOCK SCHEDULING AND WHY IS WVU IMPLEMENTING THIS? For fall 2020, all incoming first-year students will receive a block schedule. A block schedule is a pre-set schedule that includes the core courses required for an academic program.
