Account and Access

Oscar users will keep their access to Oscar as long as their Brown account are still active. To be able to access Oscar account after a user's Brown account is deactivated, the user needs to get an affiliate account through the department the user is associated.

It is the best that your affiliate account keeps the same username as your previous Brown account. Otherwise, please contact [e-mail] to migrate your Oscar account to your affiliate account.

If you are not able to connect to Oscar with your affiliate account, please contact [e-mail] for help.
