WELCOME
DEAR CWU STUDENTS AND SUPPORT NETWORKS, Welcome! It’s something you’re going to hear a lot now that you have decided to become a member of the Central Washington University Wildcat family. Our small classes, safe and friendly community, hands-on learning, and supportive faculty create a learning environment that encourages personal growth and academic achievement. CWU Orientation is your opportunity to experience academic and student life at Central. Orientation this year is a bit different than usual. We encourage you to ask lots of questions, connect with your future classmates, interact with faculty and staff (virtually and in person), consult with your academic advisors, register for classes, learn about campus activities, and tour the campus and surrounding communities.
We look forward to meeting you and can’t wait to show you all that Central has to offer.
Best wishes for an exciting first year at CWU and Welcome!

YOU BELONG.
We should take a moment to acknowledge the land on which Central Washington University resides. It is the historic home of the Yakama people. The federally recognized Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation is made up of Klikitat, Palus, Wallawalla, Wanapam, Wenatchi, Wishram, and Yakama people. The Yakama people remain committed stewards of this land, cherishing it and protecting it, as instructed by elders through generations. We are honored and grateful to be here today on their traditional lands. We give thanks to the legacy of the original people, their lives, and their descendants.
