How to Make an Exploratory Advising Appointment

Exploratory Advising Drop-Ins

Join us for in-person drop-ins or virtual drop-ins on Microsoft Teams!

    Welcome to Exploratory Advising Drop-Ins! Drop-Ins are every Thursday:                                                                        In-Person 9:00am-10:30am, Virtually 2:00pm-4:00pm   

 

*Exploratory Advising Drop-ins (in-person and virtual) will be canceled from December 19th, 2024, through January 2nd, 2025. Please check Advisor Link for available appointment times. Drop-ins will resume on Thursday, January 9th, 2025.*            

                                             

To make the most of your virtual drop-in, follow these steps on Microsoft Teams:

  • You will first notice a “General” page. We are using this page as our sign-in sheet. Please only post one time per visit.
  • You will be able to post a question or what you're interested in for advising. For example, if I'm here for a change of major process, then you will post “Change of Major Process.”
  • An advisor will send you an individual chat when you are next in line and ask if you’d like to type a chat back and forth or do a video call.
  • If, for any reason, you need to leave before being helped, please reply to your own chat with “I will come back later.”
  • If you do not respond to the individual chat in 3 minutes, the advisor will need to move on to the next student, and you will have to put yourself back into the advising queue with a new chat.
