Welcome, New Cougs!
We are so excited you are part of the WSU College of Arts and Sciences family!
All WSU students, not just freshmen, are welcome to attend the Week of Welcome College Kickoff.
Go Cougs!
College of Arts and Sciences Kickoff
Thursday, August 15 at 2:00 p.m. in the CUB Ballroom
We have the best warm up act on campus: the Cougar Marching Band! Be on time for some great music and, of course, the WSU Fight Song!
Register Today!
Complete your registration form by the end of the day on Sunday, August 18, (midnight) and you’ll be entered to win a special prize!
CAS Passports
When you arrive at the CUB Ballroom, you will find a passport on your chair. After the Marching Band and a brief message from the dean, your passport will guide you to eight different tables to complete an activity or gather information. Once you participate, you’ll receive a stamp on your passport.
Visit one more table to fill in the “Your Choice” spot and when your passport is full, turn it in to a student ambassador for a special gift. The drawing will occur on Monday, August 19.
Explore as many areas as you wish. Be on the look out for extracurricular opportunities, too, including study abroad, internships, undergraduate research, leadership, student involvement, and civic engagement.

Your CAS Student Ambassadors
Look for the students in the matching black shirts! The CAS student ambassadors come from all across our academic programs. They represent the college at recruitment and alumni programs, and help make college-wide events successful. In addition, ambassadors plan and sponsor events and programs designed to meet the needs and interests of WSU students. Applications for the next class of ambassadors will open on Monday, October 14, 2024.
