I have taken classes in the past and I want to get started again. Where do I need to go?
The first step is to be readmitted to the University. The readmission application and information is available at http://wp.missouristate.edu/admissions/returningstudents.htm or by contacting the office of admissions in Cass Hall, (417) 255-7955.
Who can sign my form if I can’t find my advisor?
Contact the appropriate Dean in Lybyer 206 or Lybyer 207.
Who is my advisor?
Every student is assigned an advisor. Students can find out who their advisor is by logging into My Grizzly Den. Under “My Enrollment” click on “My Advisor.” There you will see the advisor’s name and contact information. Students may also visit student advisement and academic support (SAAS) in Garnett Library or call (417) 255-7222 for further assistance.
What advantages does the Single Parent Resource Center offer that I can’t get elsewhere on campus?
It is a safe place for your children to be entertained while you study. It is a quieter place to study than the main tutoring lab. The Single Parent Resource Center is located at 105 S.Curry, across from the West Plains Civic Center.
What kind of support can I get at the Veteran’s Incentive Program (VIP) Center?
Academic guidance, encouragement, a place to meet other veterans and chill out in a very nice environment, as well as a room where you can interact with others who understand your past and how it is currently affecting you. The VIP center is located in the Garnett Library, (417) 255-7720.
What is TRIO?
A student support program that works with students who fall into one of three categories. They are either first-generation students, special needs or low income. It is a program to help provide these students with the edge that they need to succeed in completing a complete college degree program. Its goals are to enable these students to continue on to completion and level the playing field for these students who enter with fewer advantages than students who have had parents who have gone to college or financial resources that permit them to be better prepared for college.
