At Hofstra, each student is assigned an individual success team. Your personalized success team is available throughout your time at Hofstra and is dedicated to helping you achieve your goals. Below are some situations you may encounter and who is best suited to provide support.
Registration, Changing Majors
Every student is assigned an advising dean within the Center for University Advising (CUA) based on their major. From New Student Orientation through graduation, your advising dean is available to help you navigate academic requirements and provide information about other majors of interest.
