The superstorm knocked us out for a couple days, but so long as the University is back up and operational this week, we’ll be back to help you figure out your schedule in time for registration! Here’s what you can do:
1) Email as many of your questions and completed approval forms (for CCAS students to get their holds lifted) as you can! You can email right to Liz or Catherine, or to uhp@gwu.edu.
2) Attend the hold removal/schedule advising bagel party on Wednesday from 10am-12pm in the UHP town house in Foggy Bottom.
3) Attend walk-in hours on Thursday, Friday, and Monday (11/1, 11/2, 11/5). From 10am-4pm on both campuses, walk in for advising. It’s first come, first served, so come early (and maybe bring some homework to read if you have to wait.)
4) Attend evening walk-in hours in Foggy Bottom from 5-7pm on Wednesday.
5) Make an appointment. Right now, there aren’t any appointments available until Tuesday (11/6). If you can wait, that’s fine. Otherwise, check out the three other options above.
Remember, you can always find all of our courses and descriptions at our website here.

Brunch with Catherine and Liz
Catherine and Liz will be brunching at the Vern this Sunday. Join them in Pelham Commons at the MVC from 11am-2pm and get your CCAS advising hold removed, or just get some quality advice. All while brunching.
Will they show up in standard “brunch at the Vern on Sunday” garb? Big hats? Pajamas? You won’t know unless you show up. Preferably in your big hats and pajamas.
More info, and other advising hold removal party times below…. Continue reading “Brunch with Catherine and Liz”

Candy! Carving! Cool Kids!
The UHP is having our annual Pumpkin Carving at the Foggy Bottom Townhouse tomorrow from 2-5pm. We’ll bid adeui to summer, welcome fall and ignore the fact that winter is barreling down on us with the force of a thousand trains.
Honors will provide the warm drinks and tasty treats, you provide a pumpkin or $5 to buy one of ours. Whole Foods has a really stellar gourd collection out right now, you really have to check it out. RSVP here (http://www.facebook.com/events/103813133112898/) so we know to expect you.
We’ll watch Halloween movies, eat Halloween candy and try to defeat last year’s reigning champions of pumpkin carving competitions.
Good luck, and may the gourds be ever in your favor.
Liz has a secret…
And with Halloween right around the corner, it’s time we revealed her hidden past to the kind students of the UHP. Liz is a vampire, and not just any vampire. She is the worst kind of vampire. The kind based on the hit teen novel series by Stephanie Meyer. She speaks in terribly stilted dialogue, is constantly confessing her love for random people/animals/inanimate objects and sparkles in the sunlight. It’s this last point that led to the creation of evening walk-in hours.
Come to the UHP on Wednesday from 5-7pm and get after-hours express advising from Liz and the SPA. We recommend bringing garlic and a high tolerance for plot devices.
If you need an appointment during regular daytime hours, you can always make an appointment.
