Connect with a Cowboy coach
Now that you've gotten to know our well-known Campus Characters, it's time to meet our Cowboy Coaches! As fellow UW students, our team of peer mentors have experience navigating the college journey and are here to help! The Cowboy Coaches spend a significant amount of time throughout each semester, meeting with students and offering guidance -- whether that's in the academic arena, helping find connections on campus or navigating issues in their personal lives. While all freshmen are required to meet with a Cowboy Coach once a semester, any student is welcome to find a coach and schedule a meeting!
