Before your appointment

  • Your Advisor may guide you through online resources during your appointment. If possible, please try and have access to the internet so you can follow along.
     
  • Do a little pre-reading! Before you meet with your advisor, read through the online resources to help you become familiar with the basics. Not sure where to look? Ask our Express Desk staff or Student Success Representative for advice!
