Cross-College Advising Service

College is a time for exploring your interests and discovering new ones along the way and the Cross-College Advising Service is here to help.

CCAS has advisors ready to answer any question - BIG (What should I do with my life?) or SMALL (Do I need to take more math?).

Our advisors have information about all programs and majors on the UW-Madison campus and can help you plan a program that will keep your options open.

Your major does not dictate your career path. True, it's an important decision, but it's only one step in the whole career planning process. It's not even the most important step!
