How to Get Started

Before booking a one-on-one career counseling appointment, students must first attend a Drop-In Session. Drop-ins provide a great opportunity to get immediate guidance on quick questions, resume feedback, and next steps. After attending a drop-in, our team will help you schedule a full Career Counseling appointment tailored to your needs.

Step 1: Attend a Drop-In Session

• No appointment needed – just stop by during available drop-in hours.
• Meet with a career peer for brief guidance and initial support.
• Get answers to your questions and learn how to make the most of your career resources.

Step 2: Schedule a Career Counseling Appointment

• After attending a drop-in, you’ll be eligible to schedule a full appointment.
• Meet one-on-one with a career counselor for in-depth support.
• Walk away with a personalized plan and actionable steps to move forward.
