CAP freshmen and sophomores are assigned a Peer Advisor (PA). The PA's job is to help CAP students "learn the ropes," here at OU.
Many students learn quickly that the expectations are drastically different at OU than they were in high school. Students also discover that there are many more
distractions at college than there were at back home and there is nobody here to make sure they complete their work. The PAs help students through such transitions.

CAP PAs are upperclass students who have proven that they have what it takes to be successful at OU. They come from a variety of majors, but all have GPAs of at
least 2.75 (most have well over 3.00) and are involved on campus. PAs call and email students each week to offer assistance and to check in with each student.
Peer Advisors staff study tables Monday through Thursday each week and are available to meet with CAP participants to discuss any concerns they may have,
or just to go see a movie or to have a cup of coffee. Many PAs are CAP students themselves.
