Departmental Advising
Each academic department has a director of undergraduate studies (DUS) who can discuss with you the department’s course offerings and requirements for majors. Contact information for each DUS is printed by department in chapter III of Yale College Programs of Study (YCPS), and a separate list of DUSes is available on the Yale College Web site. Large departments may also have departmental representatives in the residential colleges; the names of these representatives are listed in the YCPS. |

The Academic Fair
A particularly important opportunity to learn about Yale’s academic programs and departments is the Academic Fair on Tuesday, September 1, from 2 to 4 p.m. Directors of undergraduate studies and faculty members from most academic programs and departments will be at the Fair to offer you guidance about courses, placement, and prerequisites for majors. It is an outstanding opportunity to gather information and advice from a broad range of sources, and you are strongly urged to attend.
