The Owen School does not assign formal academic advisors. Although the Office of Admissions provides ongoing support to Owen students who need advice on curriculum issues, ultimately, each student is responsible for fulfilling graduation requirements and choosing a plan of study that will meet her or his personal and professional goals. Honor Code Owen adheres to Vanderbilt University's strict academic honor code. The School expects students to complete individual work, including examinations, without monitoring, and to understand when collaboration and group work are appropriate. Because the latter circumstance varies from course to course, individual faculty explain work requirements carefully.
Students are responsible for seeking clarification as needed.
The Honor Council along with student representation reviews cases of possible academic misconduct.
