Six Steps to Make the Best of Your Appointment
Appointments are generally 30 minutes to 1 hour long.
-
Bring your assignment sheet and all notes/drafts. Come early in the process, as soon as you receive the assignment!
-
Arrive on time. If you are more than 10 minutes late, your appointment will be given to someone else.
-
Do not cancel your appointment less than 1 hour ahead of time. Last-minute cancellations will be considered a missed appointment or “no-show.”
-
After two missed appointments, you may be denied access to the scheduling system for the remainder of the semester.
-
Schedule a follow-up or practice appointment, either with a consultant or on your own in one of our practice rooms.
-
Do not wait until the last minute! Your session will be much more productive if you give yourself time to incorporate feedback, prepare, and practice your presentation.
