myWSU was introduced by Washington State University to serve as a student portal for enrolled students as well as applicants for checking admission status, registering, dropping or withdrawing courses, viewing grades and schedules, getting information on scholarship and financial aid, accessing canvas, and more.
The myWSU portal is very easy that almost anyone could get the hang of it without making much effort. It is a great platform with all the needed tools for accessing the web resources you most likely need at the school.
Whether you are an applicant or already admitted, the My WSU Portal knows exactly what you need and then works towards providing you with a personalized default set of resources. The various resources can also be personalized if you need something changed.
