We present a framework for an intelligent advisory system for college students that combines object-oriented and knowledge-based paradigms. Such an approach results in representational efficiency and flexibility, improved performance, and ease of software development and maintenance. A decision model is presented for course advising based on students' need to know "what to do" and "how to do it". It consists of profiling a student's strengths and weaknesses, generating a personal curriculum customized to each person's needs, and producing a schedule for the courses chosen. A system is being developed based on this framework for advising students studying for the Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) degree at the National University of Singapore.
