Our main goal:
Our Office’s main goal is to help you throughout your undergraduate education at the University of Notre Dame. Our team of Assistant Deans share a range of responsibilities, including general and developmental advising of current Notre Dame undergraduate and transfer students; coordination of the transfer and readmission application process; planning and oversight of sophomore PIN Night; approval to study abroad; and extensive advising regarding completion of courses while abroad and the incorporation of this experience into your academic path at large. Additionally, we are the unit responsible for certification of your undergraduate degree status.
Also, the Deans work diligently with faculty, Directors of Undergraduate Studies (DUS), and various offices across campus to plan course scheduling, coordinate New Faculty Orientation, and to develop partnerships to better serve the Notre Dame community.
Each Dean has been assigned a set of special projects and initiatives. Hopefully, the following information will offer you an overview of our main activities for this academic year:
