Toward Academic Success:
A Guide to Academic Advising at Yale

The purposes of the freshman advising program at Yale are to help students develop immediate and longer-range academic goals, to offer guidelines for achieving these goals, and to provide information about deadlines and requirements. The program is a collective effort by the residential colleges, academic departments, and various offices connected to the Yale College Dean’s Office. The descriptions below provide information about each of these resources.
