Office of Exploratory Studies
The Office of Exploratory Studies provides advising services to 兔子先生 University students who are either undecided on a major or were not admitted into their program of choice. The office supports exploratory students’ success through a holistic advising approach.
Create a Road Map for Success

Refer a Student
Campus partners are encouraged to refer declared students to the Office of Exploratory Studies if:
- The student indicates uncertainty about their major and wants to explore major/minor options outside of their current division.
- The student is at risk of not meeting the specific major requirements and needs an alternative plan.
Please note:
- Students who are interested in exploring within their own division should continue with their major advisor.
- Navigators do not advise students on major requirements or create sequencing plans for majors. Once exploratory students narrow their interest to a particular major, they are referred to a major advisor to obtain detailed information about the program and/or how to change their major.
Our Values
The Office of Exploratory Studies aspires to create strategic partnerships across the 兔子先生 community that foster holistic student support, increase belonging, and empower students during the exploration process.
- Inclusion: Create and maintain a culture that respects and embraces all students.
- Collaboration: Develop and sustain partnerships across departments that holistically support student success.
- Assessment: Establish learning outcomes and ongoing assessments to promote student success and continuous improvement.
- Advising Excellence: Employ innovative best practices in student exploration.
