Global Connections
Global Connections brings WSU Global Campus students together through free, online events and experiences that make the Cougar community feel closer—no matter where you are. From live webinars and student-led discussions to contests, clubs, and wellness programs, Global Connections offers opportunities to engage, learn, and grow beyond the classroom.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Our programs are funded through the WSU Global Campus Services & Activities (S&A) fees. As a result, only the currently enrolled S & A fee-paying global campus students can avail free giveaways and swags, especially our Involvement Points and Reimbursement Programs.
For Non-Global Campus Students: Everyone is welcome to attend Global Connections events, including WSU students from other campuses, faculty, staff, and alumni. Please note only Global Campus students can register through Involve. Others can add events to their calendars and then use the “Join on Zoom” link on the event page when the event begins.
