Advising Hours

  • Drop-in Advising: Review the calendar below to find the drop-in time blocks. Click on the event to find the Zoom link, and whether the drop-in is with a Peer Advisor or the Undergrad Advisor. You will first enter the waiting room, then once we are ready we will admit you to the meeting room.
  • Advising Appointments: Book 30 minute Zoom appointments with the Undergraduate Advisor on Navigate/Slug Success. Appointments must be made 24 hours in advance. If you are not currently proposed or declared in Sociology, please select the Academic Planning/Guidance, Choosing/Exploring Major/Minor, or Declaring/Adding/Changing Major/Minor as the appointment reason when scheduling your appointment. Please note: I will often have night time appointments available.
