Office of the Provost
The Office of Academic Engagement
Supporting student engagement in our academic community and providing the opportunity for all Cougs to participate in the transformative experiences of WSU.
Please contact us via email oae.provost@wsu.edu, or by calling (509) 335-2934.
The Commons Student Center is open Monday – Thursday, 8:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. and Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
OAE student service office hours are virtual on Fridays, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
There is no ordinary WSU experience. Cougars join a community that is in passionate pursuit of progress, offering limitless opportunities to engage in experiences with a higher purpose. Discovering your opportunities and charting your path provides more than the foundation for a career. Your WSU experience will help you understand yourself both as an individual and as part of something bigger. We’re here to nurture and expand your capacity to do just that, knowing that involvement is not risk-free. It takes courage to reach beyond the familiar and open oneself up to new possibilities. The same courageous spirit that made you a Cougar in the first place is daring you once again—to challenge yourself, to take on the challenges of the world—and asking: “what will you make your WSU experience?”
