WorldWide Wildcats Weekly Email
August 18, 2020
Welcome all new and returning Kansas State University Global Campus students to the beginning of the fall 2020 semester. Note to self: you've got this! Charge your electronics, because every week for the next 16 weeks, we'll be delivering you need-to-know information just for distance students — aka the WorldWide Wildcats.
It's not too late! You have until Aug. 31 to enroll in additional courses that began Aug. 17. After that date, instructor permission is required. Search for available online classes using the KSIS course search.
If you're having trouble navigating your new classes in Canvas, take the K-State Canvas Tour. Download the app on Android and iOS devices to take your courses with you on the go. Note: sign-in to "Kansas State University" on the app, not Kansas State University Global Campus. The latter is there to confuse you. No, it has a purpose, but we won't go into it. Just trust us.
All K-State students have access to a Student Success Resources Canvas Course. This course was designed to provide students with easy access to key information to support success at Kansas State University. Check out this short video which explains how and why to use the Canvas course.
Student ID cards are available to K-State Global Campus students via postal mail. A digital color copy of a government-issued photo ID and photo are required. New cards are $18 and replacement cards are $20 (+ $1.50 postage). Apply for the Global Campus Wildcat ID. If you live within a 50-mile radius of Manhattan, you're asked to visit the ID Center in the Student Union to obtain your Student ID. Use it as an excuse to visit campus and treat yourself with a scoop or three of Call Hall while you're at it (while following K-State's campus-wide mask policy, of course)!
