A Guide to the CPCS Student On Line Systems

 

CPCS students use two applications for Student Self Service:

  • CPCS Application (for registration)
  • WISER Application (not for registration)

 

CPCS Application (download the instructions in Adobe Acrobat) or use the links below

CPCS undergraduate students should use the CPCS system to:

•  create and maintain your electronic learning plan;

•  register for and add/drop CPCS competencies and classes;

•  retrieve your narrative competency evaluations;

•  select the competency evaluations you want to appear on you transcript.

 

WISER Application

CPCS students will use the WISER Student Self Service application to:

•  view their class schedules

•  request official transcripts

•  view advising (unofficial transcript)

•  request enrollment verification

•  apply for graduation

•  access billing/financial aid information.

 

The instructions that are linked within this webpage provide information on accessing and using the CPCS Applications. Instructional brochures for the WISER Self Services application are available on the student menu in WISER and in the CPCS Office of Student Services.

 

Both systems will require students to use their new USER ID and password. In preparation for full activation of the system, it is recommended that all CPCS students start the process by logging into the WISER system and setting up their new passwords.

Log-on instructions for WISER & setting up a new password

 

  • Navigate to http://wiser.umb.edu
  • Click on Student Self Service
  • The PeopleSoft 8 sign in page opens
  • Enter your User ID and Password

Students should have received a letter with your USER ID and instructions about your temporary password.

If you don't know your USER ID, you may go to:

https://www.umassadmin.net/isis/id_lookup/

Your "initial" password is the first two letters of your last name (capitalize the first letter only) followed by your birth date in MMDDYYYY format. For example, if John Smith were born on January 12, 1976, his password would be Sm01121976.

The system will force you to change your password right away. You will see a message that your password has expired. Follow the instructions, and be sure to answer the questions. Note: CPCS students should not choose more than eight characters and remember to start with a Capital and use a Number or Symbol at the end. If you find you need assistance in updating your ELP or with registration, please contact the CPCS Office of Student Services (617) 287-7120.
