General Information for College Advising | Fall 2023

College website with links to calendar, forms, advising information: http://college.as.virginia.edu  

1. Students start fall 2023 classes on Tuesday, August 22, 2023

2. Creating appointment times with students on Advising system

  • College advising calendar (on the Undergraduate College site above) at the bottom where it says SCHEDULE ADVISING: https://advise.sites.virginia.edu/
  • On the left hand side where there are three dots, you can create advising blocks; see video included in the e-mail.

3. Talking with advisees (in person, by phone, or by zoom)  

  • Phone appointments (you can dial *67 from your personal phone and then the student’s number if you would like to block your number).
  • You can also install UVA Softphone which allows you to make UVA phone calls from mobile devices.
  • Sett 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.
