The Office of Academic Discovery and Impact (OADI) at Cornell University serves as a centralized hub that provides academic and professional-development support and resources for students who participate in or are interested in participating in its signature programs, as well as any other students who are interested in taking advantage of its unique advising model. OADI advisors work with students from all undergraduate colleges and schools, with a special focus on supporting the academic, professional, and community needs of students who are first-generation college goers and/or from lower-income backgrounds.
