Meet with an Advisor

Drop-In Session

A drop-in session is NOT a scheduled appointment. When you sign in for a virtual or in-person session, you are added to the waiting queue to address your questions with the first available Academic and Career Coach. Drop-in sessions are available to current Belk College undergraduate students on a first-come, first-served basis.

We expect a high level of professionalism in the Belk College of Business and expect students to show up to scheduled meetings or reschedule in advance. This is respectful of our time as academic and career coaches and is also respectful toward your peers who would like to meet with us.
