How does academic course advising work at Vanderbilt?
Students in the College of Arts and Science and School of Engineering are assigned a pre–major adviser who helps them determine their major. Engineers must decide at the end of their freshman year; A&S students must decide by the end of their sophomore year. Students in Blair School of Music and Peabody College of Education and Human Development are assigned an adviser in the major they were admitted to freshman year but have the option to change advisers.
