Welcome to the Anthology! Anthology Accounts are free to all education majors.

Please read before submitting a help ticket.

Purpose: Throughout your program you will be assessed at various points using Anthology. The data collected through Anthology provides the necessary data for the College of Education to complete:

1) its national accreditation report,

2) its report to the NJ Department of Education and

3) our own monitoring for programmatic improvement.

Undergraduates, MAT, and Alternate Route students will receive a welcome email from Anthology after the add/drop period each semester. This introductory email includes your user id (first initial, last name) and a temporary password, along with instructions on how activate your account and submit assessments. Emails will only be sent to WP email addresses.

M.Ed., M.A., EdD., and Graduate Certificate candidates must complete a help ticket at www.wpunj.edu/help if you are registering outside of the traditional semester, in order to receive a new account or to renew an expired account.

All users:

  • If you do not receive an Anthology account one week after this period, please submit a help ticket request for a new or renewal account at www.wpunj.edu/help
  • If you previously attended WPU, your account may have expired. All student accounts expire after 1 year. See the instructions below to check if your account has expired. If so, your account will be renewed one week after the add/drop period.
  • If you are in a program that has a rolling admission, or you registered outside of the traditional semester, you will need to complete a help ticket for a new account or a renewal.
