Student FAQ Fall 2022

我们兴奋的回到现场类nd activities this Fall Term and would like to announce some important changes coming to The University of Winnipeg campus. Our top priority continues to be the health and safety of everyone in the UWinnipeg community.

此外,UWinnipeg校园将再次reopen to the public, starting August 17. For the Fall Term, the University will be open 7:30 am to 6:00 pm, Monday through Friday. Access to campus during the weekends and afterhours will require the use of the video intercoms or card access credentials.

I'm waitlisted for a course. How do I know if I get a spot?

When a spot becomes available in a course, the first person on the waitlist is sent an email to their UWinnipeg Webmail account notifying them that they have three days to claim the reserved seat by registering in the course. This process continues after classes have started so, if you are still on a waitlist for your preferred course section, you should continue to check your webmail account daily for permission to register off of the waitlist.

Professors will not be handing out permission slips anymore.

If a space becomes available during thecourse add/drop period, you will receive an email letting you know that you can register throughWebAdvisor. TheDrop Waitlistbutton will have changed to aRegisterbutton. Register immediately (or drop yourself from that waitlist usingManage My Waitlist).

Only students registered in a course onWebAdvisorwill have access to the course materials and/or (recorded) lectures on Nexus. Students waitlisted for a course will NOT have Nexus access to it.Nexusaccess will be given on the next business day after registering.

Being a waitlist for a course does not guarantee that you will be given permission to register. Students are only admitted from the waitlist if there is space available in the course before the end of the add/drop period.

Consider whether it is advisable to register in the course for which you have received permission. How far into the course is it? Do you have the time and ability to catch up? Did you miss any potential marks already?

How do I get a student card?

Returning students:Continue to use the student card you already have.

New students:Email a photo which meets The University of Winnipeg’sstudent card criteriatostudentcentral@uwinnipeg.cafrom your University webmail account. The email should include your full name and student number. Cards will be made using the photo you provide. Deadlines, designated pick-up times, and details can be found onStudent Central's website. Physical distancing protocols will be in place when you pick up your student card on campus.
