The transition from the Electronic Graduate Application System (eGAS) to UWinsite Student for the graduate admissions process is now complete. This marks a significant milestone in the University’s ongoing commitment to enhancing the student experience and leveraging modern technology to improve processes, says Patti Weir, dean of the Faculty of Graduate Studies.
“The successful transition to UWinsite Student represents a significant step forward in our ability to manage graduate admissions. We are grateful to the project team for delivering a tool that enhances the efficiency of the admission process,” Dr. Weir says. “Our faculty and staff can now access graduate applicant information directly within UWinsite Student.”
To support this transition, how-to guides and videos are available on the Office of the Registrar’s website, on the Graduate Admissions Resources page.
“We appreciate everyone’s patience and cooperation during the transition. We’ve developed resources to help those who support the graduate admissions process,” says University Registrar Ray Darling. “Future students can also learn about the application process in the Ask.UWindsor knowledge-base articles.”
Marcin Pulcer, associate vice-president, Information Technology Services, says his team is excited about the capabilities UWinsite Student offers to the graduate admissions process: “Modernizing the system has been a major goal of the department for several years.”
As always, in the event of any issue with the graduate admission process in UWinsite Student, users can open a ticket. The team from the Faculty of Graduate Studies, Office of the Registrar, and IT Services will review tickets and address issues as they arise.
