In your email, include three dates and times you are available to meet with your advisor and a short comment as to what the appointment is in regards to if other than advising for Summer and Fall.
Additional Information:
To participate in a Zoom online appointment, please make sure that you’ve downloaded the Zoom technology onto your computer or phone. Additional information and instructions on downloading and using Zoom as an attendee can be found here: Getting Started with Zoom
In addition, you should have access to a computer/laptop to view your Panther Degree Audit, as well as be in a location conducive to having your advising session.
