Effective Fall 2025, DGS will become the Division of Exploratory Studies. Same mission; new name.

Advising in Weston

DGS partners with University Housing to offer a unique living option for our students to build a community of exploration that goes beyond the classroom. Exploration is an energetic and engaging community of students who are exploring their interests, abilities, academic goals and career possibilities.

In Exploration, University Housing, Division of General Studies, The Career Center, McKinley Health Center and several academic departments provide residents with unique access to resources, connections, and opportunities for self-discovery and success.  Learn more about Exploration Living-Learning Community at https://www.housing.illinois.edu/living-communities/llc/exploration

Students who live in Weston Hall have the opportunity to meet with a DGS Advisor where they live. 

DGS advisors will hold office hours in the basement of Weston Hall on Wednesday of each week during the semester.
