Registration Information<br />

Space in each of our <strong>Immersions</strong> programs is limited.<br />

Students are encouraged to REGISTER AS EARLY<br />

AS POSSIBLE. Each program will maintain a waitlist<br />

and notify you if space becomes available.<br />

You must activate your <strong>Whitman</strong> student email in<br />

order to register for an <strong>Immersions</strong> trip. Activate<br />

your email at whit.mn/acct.<br />

Go to whit.mn/immersions to access the<br />

registration form on our Compass registration site.<br />

Registration must be received by midnight<br />

June 14, <strong>2019</strong>. Your Compass login is your<br />

<strong>Whitman</strong> ID and password.<br />

Follow the steps to rank the four experiences<br />

you’d most like to participate in. You can choose a<br />

combination of SCORE, Scrambles or Explorations.<br />

You’ll receive a registration confirmation in your<br />

Whitmail account.<br />

After registration closes, we will process applications<br />

and do our best to place students in their first-choice<br />

experience. You’ll receive a confirmation email about<br />

which experience you’ve been placed in, as well as any<br />

additional required paperwork.<br />

Participating in SCORE or Explorations experiences is<br />

free for student participants. Students who register for<br />

a Scrambles experience will receive an invoice with the<br />

final trip costs. You can pay for your trip on the Compass<br />

website. Payment for Scrambles trips is due by July 15.<br />

Students who do not pay for their trip by the deadline<br />

will be moved to a waitlist.<br />

Scrambles Scholarships<br />

We want all students who are interested in Scrambles<br />

to get the chance to participate in a trip, regardless of<br />

their financial situation. The Outdoor Program offers<br />

scholarships to students receiving significant needbased<br />

financial aid. Scholarships will cover up to 50%<br />

of the Scrambles cost, depending on the student’s<br />

need-based financial aid. The Outdoor Program will<br />

work closely with the Office of Financial Aid and the<br />

Dean of Students office to determine eligibility. All<br />

students will be automatically considered for aid. No<br />

application is needed. If you need funding beyond<br />

50% of the trip cost, contact the Dean of Students<br />

Office at 509-527-5158.
