What is a drop-in? 

Drop-in hours are a great option for students who have quick questions that don't require a full advising appointment. 

Examples of these questions are: 

  • How do I drop a course? 
  • Whom do I contact to get a hold removed? 

Drop-ins are offered in-person and virtually throughout the semester. See below for upcoming dates.

If attending in person, drop-ins are held in GH 404. Stop by our front desk and ask to see the drop-in advisor* or a peer coach based on your question and/or timeframe.

* If you are planning to meet with a drop-in advisor, please be aware that you may not be meeting with your assigned advisor specifically, but all advisors are cross-trained and happy to help you with any question you may have. 

Should I drop-in with a peer coach or an advisor?

Peer Coach Advisor
Questions about:
  • Navigating My51±¬ÁÏÏÂÔØ (class registration, degree audit, etc.)
  • Navigating Handshake
  • How to read major, minor, and FOK checklists
  • Tips and Tricks (student life, time management, etc.)
  • Favorite courses in major
  • How to get involved
 Questions about:
  • Dropping a course
  • Campus resources
  • Internship process
  • Graduation process
  • Understanding policies and procedures
Advisors and Peer Coaches cannot remove holds during a drop-in appointment. Instead, we can inform you of the process or appropriate office to have the hold removed which in some cases is to schedule an advising appointment.
