FAQs for Spring 2022 College of A&S Advising
College website with links to calendar, forms, advising information: http://college.as.virginia.edu
1. Students start classes Wednesday, January 19 2022
2. Scheduling an Appointment with the Students
• College advising calendar (on the Undergraduate College site above) at bottom where it says SCHEDULE ADVISING: https://advise.sites.virginia.edu/
• On left hand side where there are three dots, you can create advising blocks. Remember to identify what kind of meeting you prefer (in-person, phone, or zoom).
3. Talking with advisees
• For in person meetings identify the room and building where you will meet.
• Phone appointments (you can dial *67 from your personal phone and then the student’s number if you would like to block your number) OR
• Setting up video/phone Zoom; See Guide to setting up Zoom.
For the meeting options section: enable the waiting room. This allows you to admit students one at a time to a long meeting block, rather than having to set up individual meetings with each student. You can have a private conversation and then leave the meeting, invite a waiting student into a private meeting room and then start over again. Check out the Zoom link on the ITS site below.
