Welcome from the Vice Provost for Undergraduate Studies and Dean of University College

Welcome to University College, home to undergraduate students, especially first-year and transfer students. University College coordinates the academic services designed to ensure student success and enhance undergraduate retention. We in University College hope that you will avail yourselves of the services we provide in this unit. These services include orientation, placement testing, academic advising, parent programs, mentoring and tutoring, learning communities, career management, experiential learning evaluation, developmental course offerings, academic continuance, transfer student services, and student success programs.

University College is designed as the central venue for undergraduate students to locate all of the services they need to ensure their progress from the moment they enter Old Dominion University through graduation and beyond. From this home page you will find links to the various offices housed within University College. Feel free to contact these offices or the office of the Dean of University College. We are eager to answer your questions and to assist you in any way that we can, and we want you to consider us as partners in your academic journey.

Just as you have come to Old Dominion University to grow, to develop, and to learn even more about yourselves, University College is an emerging and dynamic enterprise. We will learn as much from you as you will from us, and we hope that you will share with us your ideas about how to make University College an even better academic resource, not only for you but also for those who will follow you.

Thank you for visiting our site; we look forward to serving you.
