L&S Peer Advisers

L&S Peer advisers are students who are qualified to answer quick questions. You have probably seen them sitting behind those blue carts.

The peer carts are stationed in Upper Sproul Plaza (near Sather Gate) and in front of Moffit Library every day, Monday-Friday, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. throughout the semester (weather permitting).

Peer advisers are also available during dinner hours at Residence Halls. Look for their schedule at your Academic Resource Center or call us to find out when they'll be coming by.

During the first week of classes each semester, peer advisers staff our Tele-BEARS Resource Center, located in the lobby of Campbell Hall. They have on-line access to class availability to help you find an open section and can answer Tele-BEARS and Info-BEARS questions.

The college advisers in the Office of Undergraduate Advising (OUA) can help you plan your academic program, suggest enrichment opportunities, check your progress toward a degree, and explain academic policies and requirements. It is especially important to seek help from the College advisers in your first two years at Berkeley; however, you are welcome to ask for advice throughout your college career. The advisers have access to your academic records, and can refer you to other campus services for special assistance.
