Academic Advising is an opportunity to exchange information designed to help you reach your educational and career goals. Academic Advisors assist in this process by helping you understand your options, determine resources and, when necessary, identify alternatives. You should visit an academic advisor to review major and minor choices, determine class schedules, and find information about graduation requirements.

All students at Rutgers University are expected to maintain the highest levels of academic integrity.  The definitions and examples of Cheating or Plagiarism may be understood, but it is also important to understand the meaning of Fabrication, Academic Sabotage, Facilitation of Dishonesty and how to prevent violations of the Academic Integrity Policy.  Violations can result in educational and academic sanctions which can be costly - both in terms of time, money, and future opportunities. 

To maximize academic and post-graduate success, all students are expected to complete the Academic Integrity module available on Canvas.  Once logged into Canvas, the course can be found using the link to enroll or in in the list of Published Courses.

Honors College Academic Advising uniquely supports students from six undergraduate-admitting schools—SAS, RBS, SEBS, SOE, MGSA, EMSOP—and Athletics, through one cooperative office of specialized advisors. Students work with assigned advisors on majors and requirements, graduate and professional education options, and research connections. HC Advising supports Study Abroad and Senior Capstone projects. Policies establish academic standing (GPAs), probation, and requirements for Honors Scholar status. HC Advising partners with other offices on graduation, diploma certification, internships, tutoring, and wellness referrals, as well as with ODASIS, SAS First Year Retention, Students in Transition, and the Health Professions Office. This resource is available only to Honors College students.
