Advising
Q: How do I schedule an appointment with my advisor?
A: Follow the instructions (PDF) from Admissions to access your UWO email account. Once you are logged in, look for an email about setting up your advising appointment. The email should contain a short online form for you to fill out, including your major of interest and availability. The form goes directly back to the Undergraduate Advising Resource Center (UARC), where it will be processed by the transfer team. Someone from the transfer team will contact you after your form has been processed to set up your appointment. (You will need to be logged in to your UWO email to access this form)
Q: How do I cancel/reschedule my appointment?
A: If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please call the UARC at (920)424-1268.
Q: How far in advance can I schedule my appointment?
A: We can schedule appointments as far as three weeks in advance.
Q: What if I can’t get to UWO for an appointment?
A: If you cannot come to UWO for your appointment, we can schedule you for a Google Hangout appointment instead. If you are interested in this option, please indicate it on the online advising form and/or when you call to reschedule.
Q: Could I just stop in to talk to an advisor about classes if I’m already around campus?
A: No. For your initial transfer appointment, you must use the online form to schedule your advising appointment. We cannot guarantee the advisor for your program will be available to meet with you if we cannot reserve their time in advance.
Once you have had your initial appointment, you can simply stop by the front desk of the UARC, or call (920) 424-1268 to set up a meeting.
Q: Can I just skip filling out the online form since I’m already on the phone with a PAL?
A:The online form allows us to ensure you are matched with the correct advisor and that your transfer credits are processed and posted. It can sometimes take time for credits to be posted, and without them, the advisor will not know what classes you need to take. To ensure the best advising experience, we ask that you please fill out the online form to request your initial transfer appointment.
Parking for your appointment
On the day of your appointment, please visit UW Oshkosh Parking Services to obtain a Visitor Parking Permit before arriving to Academic Advising. Bring email confirmation.
This will allow you to park in any visitor lot for the entire day. Please display the parking permit in the driver’s side window, and do not park in the metered space, handicapped space, or other restricted areas.
How to Review your Degree Audit (Advisement Report)
- Check registration date on Advisement Report–> If your registration date has passed, schedule for classes using your Advisement Report before you have met with your advisor. Classes can be changed later if necessary.
- Review Advisement Report to confirm all transfer credits have been posted, including those earned by AP & CAPP courses, CLEP, IB, etc. If credit seems to be missing, contact the Admissions Office.
- If you have not taken an English Composition or Math course for college credit, and have never taken a UW System placement test, you will need to do so. Please visit the Testing Services Website for more information.
- Check your records for accuracy by reviewing your degree audit (Advisement Report). Watch the UARC Advisement Report video. The video will show you how to read your Advisement Report and explain the requirements here at UW Oshkosh.
