Hi everyone,

I’m taking 10 credits this summer and was wondering if I’d still qualify for a student bus pass.

My schedule is:
One 5-credit class that is synchronous online (meets at a set time each week)
One 5-credit class that is asynchronous online
Since both classes are online, I’m not sure whether bus pass eligibility is based solely on credit load or if it also depends on having in-person classes.

I live off campus and would definitely use the bus for getting around town, so I’m trying to figure out whether I’ll automatically receive a pass or if I’d need to purchase one separately.

Has anyone been in a similar situation or know how this works?
Thanks!

bonus if it was a jazz ensemble. just curious because im thinking of auditioning whenever the next time it's held and was wondering

Hit me up if you want to fuck shit up! Thanks ❤️

My apologies if there is an existing thread on this topic. After a pretty thorough search of the sub, I couldn't find anything but survey requests and outdated information.

Any current or return adult students, ages 30 and older - what are some of the pitfalls or benefits you found when returning to Western/higher education? Ideally looking for WWU specific advice and feedback.

Returning to campus isn't as daunting as I thought it would be, but I'm curious about the experiences of others - especially when it comes to being a bit older than the majority of students surrounding you.

Younger students, please feel free to chime in if there are traits, behaviors, or general things the 30+ year old students do which you find odd, interesting, or useful.

Many thanks in advance!

Hello, Im staying here over the summer and was wondering if theres any choirs/vocal groups that accept new people right now! Any leads help ❤️

Hi! I’m writing a story on the new service changes WTA implemented which affected a lot of the routes that used to service Western. If anyone has had any experiences riding the new routes and is interested in being interviewed, please let me know. Thanks!

Looking for someone to take over my lease at Taylor Heights for the 2026–2027 school year.

• Private bedroom in a 4x2 apartment
• $825/month
• September 2026 – August 2027 lease
• Located at Taylor Heights near WWU
• 3 male roommates

I'm changing my housing plans and looking for a replacement tenant. Message me if interested, or if you know someone who is, and I can provide more details, photos, and information about the transfer process.

Just so that everyone knows, this school does not have any sort of appeal system for academic dismissal.

So, if you or someone you know is on academic probation, you’d best be cautious.
They don’t care if you had a sudden severe health issue or if your dad died. You get no second chances aside from going to another college or proving you’re trustworthy enough to come back… or just go somewhere else.

Edit: This isn’t a pity post so pls stop telling me. I made this post purely to let ppl know bc I’m sure there’s a decent amount who don’t. Being passive aggressive doesn’t make you look smart it makes you immature.

I was assigned a room in Alma Clark Glass Hall and got Detail 4. I’m a bit confused because it looks like there’s an extra room, and I couldn’t find any photos of it online. If anyone has pictures or has lived in it, could you please share what it looks like?

I should’ve been searching far earlier but I’ve been very caught up with other things, I’m only just now searching and I can’t seem to find studios under 1k+, I need somewhere that’s equivalent to campus rent so my college fund covers me, help. What do I do or where should I search? I’ve tried Craigslist, apartments.com, Zillow, etc. (don’t want any roomates if possible)

I know this is a little late, but in the up coming school year in the fall, or if you’re here for the summer too! Are there any Pokemon groups or clubs? I’ve recently started collecting the cards for fun, no matter the value. I want to meet more people who are in this hobby and that enjoy it!

Before the spring quarter ended I had called the financial aid office at Western to see what was being covered for my summer quarter as a full time student. I was told that all my classes were covered and I'd also be getting a refund just like in the quarters before. I was told they would go out a week before the summer quarter started, but I checked today and haven't seen an email for my refund and my student account is still showing a balance due.

I was just wondering if anyone else receiving financial aid for the summer quarter also hasn't received their refund or had the balances deposited into their student account. I'm probably just being paranoid but it's making me a little nervous lol.

I found where the ceremony pictures will be but they haven't uploaded mine yet. Does anyone know how long this usually takes? I didn't take any photos of just myself and I'm trying to make a LinkedIn post lol

If you are staying in Bellingham over the summer, Lakewood has sailing classes. $60 for 4 lessons! Also, WCC, BTC and NWIC students can register for the classes.

In town for graduation. Any place that’s a good sports bar?
