Academic Advising Team Please note: Students in a CLAS major are able to find their assigned CLAS advisor’s name in UCD Access under the “Student Profile” section.
How CLAS Advising Works The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (CLAS) utilizes a dual-advising system, which means all undergraduate students in a CLAS major have two academic advisors with whom they should work throughout their time at CU Denver. CLAS Academic Advisors work with students regarding CU Denver Core Curriculum, CLAS, and general graduation requirements, as well as university and college policies and procedures. Faculty advisors work with students on their major requirements within their respective academic departments. Both advisors monitor students’ degree progress and approve graduation eligibility.
The Academic Success & Advising Center (ASAC; Student Commons Building 1113; 303-315-1940) advises students who are undecided about their college major (i.e., undeclared) or who are pre-architecture, pre-business, or pre-engineering.
