Virtual Services
Our virtual services are designed so that students can meet with our advisors without coming to campus or scheduling an appointment in advance. You will be connected virtually to the first available advisor.
You will need to have downloaded the Zoom app to your smart phone/device to connect.
Note: During times of high volume, our scheduling queue may close when our capacity
to serve students admitted into the virtual lobby has been met.

Important Notes
-
Please have a photo ID available for your visit.
-
Proper dress required: If you are going to use a web cam to interact with our advisors, it’s important that you dress appropriately — just like you would in a traditional, face-to-face meeting.
-
When connecting with our virtual services, it’s important you are able to fully engage with an advisor. You should never connect with our virtual services when you’re driving, and we recommend you avoid accessing our virtual services when you are engaged in another activity that limits your attention during the session.
