Holistic Advising at UD link-arrow link-arrow

At UD, our commitment to developing the whole person means every undergraduate is paired with a holistic advisor who is by their side from enrollment through graduation. Holistic advisors don’t just help students choose courses. They connect students with resources to explore their vocation, navigate challenges inside and outside the classroom, explore opportunities for experiential learning and more.
