Faculty Advisors for Transfer Students

This page is a resource for new transfer students to get connected with their academic department or major area of interest. Once you have been admitted and have received your transfer evaluation if you have 24 credit hours or more transferring to Western you can contact the person listed below. Please don't contact them before you receive your evaluation. Only students with more than 24 transferable credit hours should call their faculty advisors.

The faculty advisor will offer guidance and advising related to your academic program. They will then direct you to call 800-876-5309 to get your appointment to receive your ARC code and any additional advising from registration services.
