Students who are United States citizens or permanent residents must submit proof of health insurance. Upload a photocopy of your health insurance card on your portal.
GET ACQUAINTED WITH THE GLOBE.
Once you receive your unique student ID number you can use this ID number to log into the Globe, the central information portal for current students at Wells. You will use the Globe to register for your first semester of Wells classes! Once you register for classes, your personal wells.edu email account will be generated.
Review the following information to help you register for classes:
Watch your mail for dates and additional details about campus housing registration. Housing is assigned on a first-come, first-serve basis depending on the date you enrolled.
Once you've submitted the Housing Preference Form and the Roommate Questionnaire, check your email inbox for a notification. You can check your housing and roommate information on the Globe. If you have concerns about your assignment, don't panic! Plenty of things shift around during the summer and requests for housing changes are typically granted before move-in day.
Please note that roommate requests require both students to ask for each other as the roommate.
GET YOUR FSA ID.
Create your unique FSA ID here. In addition to students having a unique FSA ID, parents should also create their own unique ID. The FSA ID provides you with a username and password that will give you access to the U.S. Department of Education’s consumer-facing website: studentaid.gov/. You will need your FSA ID to complete the FAFSA.
COMPLETE AND SUBMIT YOUR FAFSA.
