Would you like to speak with an advisor?

OISS Advisors will be available for virtual drop-in hours during the designated times below. Please refer to the information below for how to speak with an advisor. 

All F-1 and J-1 students are able to utilize our drop-in hours. Advisors will be available on Zoom during the times listed below for quick/general questions and will meet with students in the order they join the waiting room. Drop-in hours are not available during university holidays and breaks.

Drop-in hours are for quick questions. If students have involved or in-depth case-specific questions, they should schedule an appointment via LionConnect. Please go to your Care Team in LionConnect, select OISS and the topic you want to meet about, and then select that you will meet with anyone on this team. This will ensure you see the soonest available appointments.

Make sure to check the Drop-in Hours and Holiday closures schedule below before entering the Zoom room.

You will be let into the Zoom room as soon as an immigration advisor is available. We appreciate your patience while we provide individual attention to each student.
