MPA career coaches and academic advisors are available for walk-in hours during the dates/times posted below. Walk-ins will take place in a “first come, first served” manner via Zoom. Upon entering the Zoom walk-in session you may be placed into a waiting room if another student is ahead of you in the queue. If we are unable to speak with every student during the assigned walk-in hours on any given day, we will communicate an alternative time or method to reconnect. Remember, walk-ins should only take 5-10 minutes and for longer or more complex discussions it is recommended that students schedule an appointment (see below).

Please visit the MPA Program Office Canvas Page for our weekly walk-in advising schedule.
