TIGER PAW STUDENT HANDBOOK (2009-10)

Tiger Paw Student Handbook

*Welcome to the "Tiger Paw", the official student handbook for undergraduate and graduate students at The University of West Alabama.* Since the *Tiger Paw* contains a great deal of important information, undergraduate and graduate students at The University of West Alabama are expected to read the handbook during their first few days on campus. As questions arise during your enrollment at UWA, you may want to browse the student handbook. The *Tiger Paw* is divided into various topics that are listed in the table of contents at the bottom of this page. Major sections of the student handbook are also listed in the left-hand margin of each page of the *Tiger Paw. Although every effort has been made to provide students with complete and accurate information, UWA reserves the right to change programs and requirements, and to modify, amend or revoke rules, regulations and policies listed within this handbook. The Tiger Paw Student Handbook does not constitute a contract between the student and UWA.* If you are looking for information on a specific subject or University policy, you may want to use the search tool.
