Academic Support
At Saint Louis University, we have a range of offices on campus to help you achieve your academic and professional goals, whether it's selecting a major, meeting with a tutor or success coach, getting help with a paper or project, or choosing classes for the upcoming semester.
SLU provides students with both an academic advisor and a faculty mentor. Guided study groups are available in some residence halls through our learning communities, or you can form your own with the help of SLU's residence hall staff.

Academic Support Services
At Saint Louis University, academic advising is more than just course selection — it’s a cornerstone of student success, growth and engagement throughout the undergraduate experience. Every undergraduate student is assigned an academic advisor to help them understand their degree requirements and coursework, navigate university policies and procedures, and connect them with campus resources to achieve their goals.
Students in SLU's School for Professional Studies have academic support opportunities unique to their programs.
Career Services is available to help you at any stage of your career journey including exploring majors related to your interests. The Career Services team is available to help with developing a resume, job and internship search planning, interviewing practice, professional skills, networking, employer connections, and more. Resources are available for life for SLU graduates free of charge.
If you require academic accommodations on an ongoing or temporary basis, SLU's Center for Accessibility and Disability Resources can help coordinate auxiliary aids and services. Inquiries about reasonable university-related accommodations are kept confidential.
