Center for Student Advising
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".
