Warhawks SOAR (Student Orientation, Advising, & Registration)
Once admitted to UW-Whitewater, one of your next steps is to participate in a Warhawks SOAR (Student Orientation, Advising, & Registration) program. During Warhawks SOAR you will:
- Learn important information about campus to help you prepare for your education at UW-W
- Connect with an academic advisor to discuss your academic options
- Register for classes
- Meet other new Warhawks
During the unprecedented COVID-19 situation, health and safety remain our top priority. As a result, all Warhawks SOAR programs will take place virtually. This virtual experience will still allow you to learn more about the University, connect with other new Warhawks, and engage in the academic advising process for course registration.
Warhawks SOAR is required for all new students in order to enroll in classes. When you register for Warhawks SOAR, the non-refundable $90 new student fee and a $100 enrollment deposit is due. If you wish to defer these fees to your first semester bill, please complete the fee deferment request.
More details about the the virtual Warhawks SOAR process will be emailed to you approximately 10 days prior to the date for which you register. So don't delay, register for SOAR now!
Warhawks SOAR dates for first-year students starting in September 2020:
May 29, June 2, June 4, June 8, June 10, June 12, June 16, June 19, June 23, July 31
Program registration began on March 2, 2020. Program dates close 4 business days before in order to allow enough time to process the student's account.
