Go West Orientation is one day of informative sessions and fun interactive programs, designed to enhance your new student experience at The University of West Alabama. 

You have been accepted and now it's time to register for classes. During Go West Orientation, we will cover topics such as student engagement, academic expectations, study tips, and general "ins and outs" of college life at UWA. 

Students are given the opportunity to have interactive sessions with other members of the incoming class. 

Preregistration for Go West is required. Once you submit your enrollment confirmation fee, all that is left is to register online here. 

Go West is a fun and active setting. Dress for all events will be casual, such as shorts and a t-shirt. The most important thing to bring is an open-mind and an adventurous attitude. 

Because this time can be both exciting and challenging for the entire family, we encourage parents to attend Go West Parent Orientation as well. The parent sessions is designed to offer vital information for the family support system of each new UWA student. However, it is not required that a parent attend.

There is a required $50.00 registration fee.
