Student Accounts Log In

E-Mail and Online Wins Accounts

All enrolled students will be assigned a WLU email account. Administration and faculty will distribute information to students through their WLU email account. Students must regularly check their email accounts in order to stay informed of class assignments, deadlines, registration information and other campus information. Students should contact IT Services for email-related questions. New students will have email accounts created prior to the beginning of the entering semester, assuming the student is registered for classes. Students are required to use the WLU email account for university business. Billing statements will be sent to students via their WLU email account.

West Liberty Information Network System (WINS)

All enrolled students will have an online account via WINS (West Liberty Information System). Important messages are posted in WINS. Currently enrolled students also use WINS to:

Accept Financial Aid Awards
View and verify personal information (addresses, telephone numbers, major, advisor, etc.)
Access Mid-term and Final Grades
Register for courses - View unofficial transcripts
Access billing and financial aid information

Students should contact the Enrollment Center for WINS questions. Failure to check email and WINS accounts will not remove students from responsibility in meeting stated deadlines and procedures.

Canvas

Canvas is the Learning Management System (LMS) used at WLU. Every course (in-seat, hybrid, and online), uses the LMS to some degree. Canvas is accessed using the WLU Single Sign-On Portal. Questions about login should be directed to the IT department. Instructure, the maker of Canvas, provides 24/7 user support. To obtain assistance while using Canvas, select the Help button on the Global Navigation Menu found on your Dashboard in Canvas. General questions about the LMS should be sent to the Center for Teaching, Learning, and Online Education at CTLOE@westliberty.edu
