Student Central Features

What is Student Central?
All U of S students (undergrads and grads) can get any kind of student service information at Student Central. Students don't have to know what kind of services they might need, and they don't have to keep track of where services are offered. Student Central does it for them!

Student Central staff can...

• sign government student loans
  
• produce transcripts
  
• confirm enrolment
  
• add, change and drop classes
  
• answer questions about registration and U-STAR
  
• assist with the graduation and Convocation process
  
• provide information about fee appeals
  
• offer advice regarding learning assistance
  
• provide personalized, friendly service and solutions
  
• offer advice regarding money matters and emergency loans
  
• provide referrals to any service on campus
  
• and more...!

  If students need assistance, want to identify options, or just need to find out where to go, the only place they need to know about is Student Central - temporarily located in the atrium of the Administration Building.

  In addition to improving in-person service for students, much of the online information for students has been reorganized into a student-friendly website that integrates with and complements the information and services in PAWS.
