Lowry Student Area

Welcome to Wooster!

We want to make your transition to The College of Wooster and college life as smooth as possible.  An Orientation for January admitted students will take place on Sunday, January 13 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. All new students are required to attend. You will receive additional information by email and U.S. mail.

Please use the checklist below to find and complete the required forms.

 Additional Steps

    Please fill out the this form and send it to the Dean of Students Office. You may mail it, fax it to 330-263-2094, or email it to the Dean of Students. The Family Educational Rights & Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal law that protects the privacy of student education records, both financial and academic. For the student’s protection, FERPA limits release of student record information without the student’s explicit written consent; however, it also gives the student’s parent(s)/guardian the right to review those records if the parent(s)/guardian claim the student as a dependent on their federal income tax return.
  2. Complete the Disability Information Form (if applicable)
    If you have a learning or physical disability, please complete this form. You will also need to visit The Learning Center website and download the Policies and Procedures for Students with Disabilities handbook. 
  3. Complete the Public Information Questionnaire
    The information requested on this questionnaire will be used in the production of media releases about your activities and accomplishments during the next four years at The College of Wooster. If you prefer that no releases be sent, you may indicate that on the form.
  4. Complete Emergency Notification
    Please follow the directions to submit Emergency Notification information. You need to submit contact information including your cell phone number, non-Wooster e-mail, home phone, and alternative emergency contact, such as a parent or other family member.  This information will NOT be used for general announcements, only for emergency notifications.
