Office for Academic Advising Support

The Office for Academic Advising Support (OAAS) provides holistic advising and major exploration services to undeclared and exploratory students, in addition to offering advising to newly admitted transfer students as they transition to DePaul. OAAS empowers students to make academic choices that incorporate their individual interests, values and skills. Additionally, OAAS provides advising support services to the DePaul community and fosters university-wide collaborations with faculty and staff to enhance advising experiences for DePaul students. 

OAAS will meet with any undergraduate student who is undeclared or thinking about changing or adding a major or minor. There are several ways to connect with OAAS:

1. BlueStar: If you are undeclared in LAS, CSH, or CMN, you have an assigned OAAS advisor and can schedule an appointment directly to your advisor's calendar using BlueStar in Campus Connect.  You can find instructions here​.

If you are declared in any undergraduate program but considering a change in major or minor, you can schedule an appointment directly to an OAAS advisor's calendar in BlueStar by clicking My Appointments-->Schedule an Appointment-->Teams and then selecting an advisor's name under the “OAAS: Major Exploration Advising" team. 

2. Telephone: Between the hours of 9am-5pm on Mon-Fri, you may call us at 773/325-7431 to schedule an appointment.
 
3. Email: Email AdvisingSupport@depaul.edu for assistance with quick questions, referral information to other offices, or assistance scheduling an advising appointment with OAAS. 

Students who are declared and are not considering a change should contact their home college advising office​ for assistance with advising.
