The Center for Student Advising is the advising center for Columbia undergraduates. It is the result of the merger of FYSAAC and JSAC.

As a result of the merger, students are now supposed to have the same adviser for all four years of college.

Operationally, the merger has resulted in a new website and a name change for the three advising offices, which are still located in Lerner Hall (formerly FYSAAC), Broadway Residence Hall (JSAC), and Schapiro Hall (JSAC).

Furthermore, as part of Columbia's never-ending quest for the ideal platonic "form of the bureaucracy", the Office of Pre-Professional Advising, Columbia Undergraduate Scholars Program and Academic Success Programs have been rolled into the "CSA" umbrella along with "general advising".

In 2010, CSA was moved to the renovated 4th floor of Lerner Hall. The department is headed by Dean Monique Rinere.
