Using WebAdvisor to Find Classes

This Friday, 08Jul05, Northwest College holds the second New Student Orientation session of the summer on the Powell campus. One of the features of the orientation session is the chance for students to register for classes, but how does a new student know what's available? Enter WebAdvisor.

Among other things, WebAdvisor allows students to check on the availability of classes. Let's say you've heard Dr. Rob Koelling is the person to take for freshman English. Here's how to find out if Dr. Koelling has an available class:

1. Go to the Northwest College WebAdvisor site at www2.nwc.cc.wy.us/datatel/openweb/index.html.
2. Choose Search for Classes.
3. On the next page, fill out three fields: Term (05/FA -Fall 2005), Subjects (ENGL), and Instructor's Last Name (Koelling).
4. Click on the Submit button at the bottom.
5. The results page shows--sadly--that Dr. Rob Koelling's freshman classes are all full.

You can use the same process to search for classes offered at a particular time or on particular days of the week or at a particular level (1000 or 2000). WebAdvisor can save you a lot of time.

The final summer registration session is Thursday-Friday, 04Aug05 to 05Aug05, with walk-in registration on Friday,26Aug05.
