Professional Academic Advisors
The Dean's Office Professional Academic Advisors, located in the Center for Academic Student Services Office in 1 Meserve Hall, provide advice on a wide range of academic issues, mostly related to College and University requirements and policies. Each student in the College has an assigned academic advisor in the Center for Academic Student Services Office, and students see these advisors on issues related to the Core Curriculum requirements, the Experiential Education Requirement, the Advanced Writing in the Disciplines Requirement, academic progress within the College, changing majors, taking leaves of absence, seeking waivers of College or University policies, taking courses at other institutions, and graduation requirements. Academic advisors also monitor students' academic progress each term, notify students when they are in academic difficulty, and maintain academic files for all students in the College.

Academic advisors in the Center for Academic Student Services Office are available, by appointment:
Fall, Spring and All Summer Terms
Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.
Appointments may be made by calling 617-373-3980 or by coming to the Center for Academic Student Services Office in 1 Meserve Hall. When students meet with either an academic advisor or with a faculty advisor in a major department, they should bring with them a copy of their MyPAWS Degree Audit, available from the MyNeu portal, under "Self Service."
Freshmen who have not yet chosen a major (Undeclared students) are assigned to one of the professional academic advisors in the Center for Academic Student Services Office until the students choose, and are accepted into majors, at which time they are advised by a faculty member in the program to which they have been accepted. This should happen by the end of the freshman year.
The professional academic advisors in the Center for Academic Student Services Office work closely with faculty advisors in the major departments to guide students through their academic programs and help them with any problems that may arise relating to the College requirements and/or procedures. Together, the professional academic advisors and the faculty advisors review students' records in a "senior clearance" interview several months prior to graduation to ensure that the students have completed all degree requirements.
