*****Your adviser will give electronic approval for you to register at your appointed day and time.  You may check to be sure electronic approval for Web Registrtion has been given by your adviser by logging into WebAdvisor and clicking on "Personal Registration Information."  Contact your adviser if approval has not been given.

Special registrations...

The following special registrations must be processed in the Office of the Registrar on a Course Selection Form (available in the Office of the Registrar) rather than through WebAdvisor:

  • Cross-registered courses (additional form available in the Office of the Registrar)

It's my time to register!


1. Login to WebAdvisor. (WebAdvisor does not always like the browser back button so navigate through the menus, tabs and WebAdvisor buttons.)

2. Click on the red "Students' button and locate the registration menu.  Registration options include:

  • Express Registration--Use this option if you know the exact classes and sections you want.  Enter the course number and two-digit section number, e.g. ENG 105-01.
  • VWC--Search for Sections--This option can be used to search for classes by General Studies type or by department.
  • Search-Register for Sections--Use this option to search for and then register for classes.

3.  Print your schedule for your own record.

4.  "Log off" of WebAdvisor before closing your browser window.

Adding/Dropping courses...

Your adviser will give electronic approval for registration when he/she is satisfied that advising for the upcoming semester is complete. You will be able to add or drop courses if necessary for Spring Semester without additional adviser approval through the end of add/drop week, January 29.

Winter Session has no add/drop week.  Therefore, Sunday, January 3 is the last day that a Winter Session course can be dropped online through WebAdvisor.  Friday, December 18 (noon) is the last opportunity to drop a Winter Session class in person in the Registrar's Office.

ROTC

If you are interested in earning a commission as an officer in the United States Army, you have the opportunity to do so by taking ROTC classes at Old Dominion University while pursuing a degree in your chosen field of study at VWC through the Virginia Tidewater consortium. Learn what it takes to be a commissioned officer. You will have the opportunity to compete for ROTC scholarships. Check the ODU web site at www.armyrotc.com/edu/olddominion/index/htm for more information.

The Basic Course refers to first and second year courses which are designed for beginning students who want to qualify for entry into the Advanced Course and for those students who may want to try Military Science without obligation. For a listing of courses, go to www.odu.edu/home/secondary/index.html. If you decide to take a class, you will need to complete a Virginia Tidewater Consortium Student Cross-Registration Form, available in the Virginia Wesleyan College's Registrar's Office.
