Advising

Students within the School of Public Service work with the Assistant Director for Academic Advising to successfully navigate through their program. In addition to having the Assistant Director for Academic Advising as their academic advisor, students are also assigned a faculty mentor to provide professional and educational guidance. Please refer to the descriptions below for the difference between the academic advisor and the faculty mentor.

Assistant Director for Academic Advising

The Assistant Director for Academic Advising is a resource for students. Students can meet with the Assistant Director for Academic Advising at any point in their academic career. We encourage new students to meet with the Assistant Director for Academic Advising in their first quarter to develop an academic plan to use as a guide through the program. The Assistant Director for Academic Advising can help with many program related concerns including progression towards degree completion, degree and conferral requirements, navigating the university, course selection and registration issues, waiver processes, elective substitutions, program reclassification, transfer credit requests, information about Study Abroad and internship requirements, as well as resources at DePaul that will help you complete your degree.
