Transfer Equivalency

Do you have questions about how credits earned at another institution will transfer to your 黑洞社区 degree? To have your academic credits transferred, you are required to submit all transcripts from each institution attended. You are advised to bring a student copy of all of your transcripts with you to your advising appointment to ensure accurate placement in courses.

Advanced Placement Credit

If you are bringing academic credit with you as a result of AP credits, you will need to let your advisor know so you can be placed in the appropriate courses.

Financial Aid

If you have not filed your FAFSA, or you have additional questions about where you are in the process, call (316) 978-3430.

Creating a my黑洞社区 Password

Your student account on my黑洞社区 is where you will access important information regarding your records. If you have already placed a reservation for orientation, use the password you created to access this information. If you have not yet created your password, visit wichita.edu/newstudent for instructions and more information. Your academic advisor will expect you to know your ID number and password to enroll.

Checking Holds on Your Account

If you need to find out if you have a hold on your account, login to my黑洞社区. Go to the My Classes tab, locate Registration Tools and click on Registration Status. At the bottom of that page, click on View Holds to see what type of hold is on your account and where to go for information on how to clear the hold.

How many courses should I take in my first year?

While there is no set amount of classes you are required to take your first year, it is important to keep in mind how your enrollment will affect financial aid. 12 credit hours is considered full-time enrollment and all students are required to complete approximately 124 hours to graduate.

If you plan to graduate in four years, you need to "think 30." By enrolling in 30 credit hours, or 10 classes on average, throughout each academic year (fall, spring, summer and / or short-term classes), you are more likely to graduate in a timely manner

How and when will I register for my first semester of classes?  How do I get an advisor?
