Appointments: Now in Two Delicious Flavors!
This year we’re skipping the traditional walk-in hours for the first two weeks of the semester, and instead using a new option for appointments!
Starting right this very moment, you have the option of booking a 15 minute OR a 30 minute appointment with either Liz or Catherine!
Please note that 15 minutes is the default booking time, so if you want a 30 minute appointment, you have to select it! (You’ll see the dropdown menu for it after you select your start time.)
If you’re still looking for drop-ins, come to express advising hours, every Wednesday from 5-7pm in Foggy Bottom to see Liz and some SPA!
Head over and make your appointment now!
Remember, always take note of where you made your appointment! You don’t want to show up at the Mt. Vernon Campus if Liz or Catherine is waiting for you in Foggy Bottom!
What's the Deal with the Dual Campus?
This year, the UHP is spearheading the Dual Campus Model. What does that mean?
We’re in two places! We have offices on the Mt. Vernon Campus AND in Foggy Bottom. Find us at Ames Suite 101 (MVC) or 714 21st Street NW (FoBo).
But not at the same time! (At least not individually.) For now, you can find Catherine at MVC on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and in Foggy Bottom on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Liz will be at MVC on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and in Foggy Bottom on Tuesdays and Thursdays. (Don’t worry, it’s easily navigable when making an appointment.)
Honors faculty live with us now! Well, they still have homes that they go to (we’re pretty sure), but their offices are now in the same place as staff. We know, we know: we’re already working on getting a reality-style sitcom deal with pretty much every major network so people can enjoy our dynamic. We’ll let you know about that too.
Senior Year Checklist!
For a lot of you, this is the start of your last year as undergrads! Make sure to start the year off right! We’ve put together a little guide for you below to help make sure you’ve got your bases covered. It’s a good idea for you to make an appointment with Liz or Catherine to make sure you’ll be graduating when you think you are!
