Each student in the Honors College is assigned a School-based Honors College Advisor or Assistant Advising Dean. These advisors work closely with students on issues such as course selection, major selection, graduate and professional school options, and academic achievement. Likewise, you will work with Honors College porgram directors and deans on programming, fellowships, internships, research opportunities, travel study, and more.
Honors College students are assigned to an advisor based on their School of enrollment (School of Arts & Sciences, Rutgers Business School, School of Environmental & Biological Sciences, School of Engineering, Mason Gross School of the Arts or the School of Pharmacy). These School-based academic advisers are specialists in their area and will help make sure that students meet the Honors College requirements within the curriculum of their particular school. The Honors College Office of Academic Affairs exists to support the efforts of the School-based advisors and thus, through them, your academic and personal well-being. We are not a confidential resource, so we may be legally required to report certain situations to protect the welfare of you and your fellow students and the greater University community. The University has confidential resources available for students through the following sources:
- For mental health support or concerns, visit Counseling, ADAP and Psychiatric Services (CAPS).
- For medical concerns, visit University Health Services.
- For support regarding sexual violence, relationship abuse, stalking or other crime victimization, visit The Office For Violence Prevention and Victim Assistance (VPVA).
