4. Before office hours begin, make sure you can log into Microsoft Teams using a browser or by downloading the mobile or desktop app. If using a browser, you may want to use Chrome as Safari and FireFox might have audio and feature issues.

Notes

• To meet with an advisor during virtual office hours, you need access to a working webcam, microphone, a reliable internet connection, and that you are in a quiet location.
• Disclaimer: occasionally advisors may not be able to see every student in line for a given timeslot. Please note that we will do our best to avoid this but that it could happen.
• If you need to speak with an advisor in-person, please email us first.
