Dean of Students Office

To help students reach their academic, professional, and personal goals, the Dean of Students Office directly supports the staff of the following offices:

• Community Standards

• Intercultural Engagement and Inclusion

• Interfaith Center

• Parent and Family Programs

The Office of the Dean of Students fosters an inclusive environment that encourages holistic student engagement, development, and success in and out of the classroom for each undergraduate and graduate student (professional students in the Deane School of Law and Zucker School of Medicine have separate student support administrative offices). The office develops and provides programs and services that assist in creating a strong campus community in which people from all cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives feel welcome and celebrated. We encourage students to become active citizens of Hofstra, the local community, and the world.

The Dean of Students Office promotes responsible and ethical decision-making that demonstrates integrity and respect for self and others. The office assists current students in managing their time at Hofstra and understanding the expectations and community standards they are required to uphold as they navigate their educational pathway. The Dean of Students Office advocates for students and is an administrative ally to students as they explore social, academic, and extracurricular engagement on campus.
