Academic Advising

Academic advising services for Fall 2022

Virtual drop-in advising

Connect with us for a quick appointment every Tuesday and Thursday from 1 – 3 p.m. Ideally, this service is for students who have taken 60 credits or less, have already met with an Academic Advisor and have a program planner on file.

These drop-in sessions are intended to be 10 – 15 minutes in duration, and further appointments might be needed for in-depth program planning (60 or more credits, or complex situations).

You can book in-depth advising sessions through the appointment booking system.

Joining a drop-in session

• Click the Zoom link to join as an attendee.
• You will be added to the queue based on when you arrive.
• Have your student number ready.
