Peer Advising Liaisons (PALS)
This means you can rely on PALs to have the answers to many of your questions.
Who is a PAL?
PALs are returning UW Oshkosh students who care about their fellow students and are committed to helping students reach their college goals. PALs are carefully selected through a formal interview process based on academic criteria, experience, and attitude.
Why do you need a PAL?
There will be many times during college you will have questions that need to be answered, but you may have no idea where to go. PALS are here for that reason and much more. PALs are students just like you who have been in college for awhile and have asked just about every question you could imagine. If a PAL doesn't know the answer, they will know where to refer you. PALs can also offer support when you feel overwhelmed, frustrated, or confused.
A PAL can help you with ...
- Reading a STAR.
- Holds/Stops on records.
- Finding my advisor.

- Making an appointment with my UARC advisor.
- Adding and dropping a class.
- Repeating classes.
- Registration.
