Academic Advising
Both Emory College and Oxford College offer academic advising to support your academic journey. Your advisor can also connect you to academic success programs such as coaching and free one-on-one peer tutoring. These are just some of the ways we collaborate toward your success.
Emory College
Office for Undergraduate Education
The primary source of academic support for Emory College students is the Office for Undergraduate Education (OUE). All Emory College students are assigned an OUE academic advisor. Your advisor can assist you with course planning, degree progress, and navigating challenges or concerns that may occur, as well as provide referrals to campus partners who offer additional resources and services.
SUCCESS AT EMORY
All first-year students will enroll in 3 courses during their first year: ECS 101, Health 100 and a PE activity course. These courses are specifically designed for first-year students as they introduce resources and help students develop positive habits that will support their academic success.
Oxford College
Discovery Seminar Program
Oxford College offers a signature academic experience for all first-year students, Discovery Seminar. A faculty mentor, who also serves as the student's academic faculty advisor, leads each Seminar class. Discovery Seminars are taught about a variety of unique topics.
Peer assistance leaders (PALs)
A select group of sophomores at Oxford College who serve as orientation leaders and co-facilitators in Freshman Seminar classes. They guide new students through the orientation process, and they help students meet new people and understand the logistics of college life, including class scheduling, campus lingo and traditions, as well as resources on campus.
Business School
Students interested in business can apply to spend their junior and senior years at Emory’s Goizueta Business School to earn a BBA. Each student is assigned an academic adviser when they enroll, through the business school's own Advising Center to ensure they are meeting coursework requirements and professional goals.
School of Nursing
Students interested in nursing can spend their junior and senior years at Emory’s School of Nursing to earn a BSN. A wide range of academic support services aid future nurses with peer and writing tutoring as well as preparation for the licensure exam.
