Your student will meet their first academic advisor at class registration. They’ll work together to build a first-semester schedule that incorporates your student’s interests and goals, considers their prior education, and aligns with how they want to get involved on and off campus. 

My experience as a student at Nebraska Wesleyan was a time of discovery. I took psychology, advertising and German classes, and I was active in campus ministry. All these experiences, in and outside the classroom, shaped me. Each discovery led me to a vocation as a pastor in the United Methodist Church. And now, I’m returning to NWU with a new role as university minister.
