Graduate Advising

Overview

Graduate advising is primarily handled within academic departments. Please contact your department directly with your advising questions (e.g., registration, course selection, program requirements, independent study, comprehensive exam schedule). Please see also聽 for links to career advising, wellness, and other resources.

If you have questions regarding CAS's graduate admissions process or application procedures, please contact CAS's Office of Graduate Admissions.

Orientation

At the start of a new school year each graduate program will hold an individual orientation. The CAS Dean's Office hosts a welcome reception as well. Information about these events will be posted here closer to the start of Fall 2025.
