Open Office Hours

Open Office Hours

University College Students

Beginning Fall 2025, open office hours are only for non-university college students. All University College students have an assigned advisor and should either contact their advisor via email or make an appointment in Connect. If you are a University College student and you do not have an assigned advisor, please call our front desk (704) 687-7717 and we will make sure one is assigned to you. 

Note: If you have previously met with a University College advisor, please make sure you have reviewed the advising notes from your last appointment in Connect and any recent email communications from your assigned advisor.
