PhD Student Advisor

Your student advisor is your former student buddy mentioned in your admit letter. This student advisor is in addition to your faculty advisor and will provide you with less formal and more broad-ranging help. We encourage you to get to know your student advisor, as he or she can be of assistance with problems big and small, academic, social and otherwise. Your student advisor can assist you with getting in touch with other students and faculty members, and help you to find out what's going on in the department as a whole. If you  are unsure about who your student buddy is please email phdstudentservices@cs.stanford.edu.
