Credit vs. Standard Appointments
Guaranteed Weekly Sessions: Credit-seeking students have a guaranteed recurring time every week, avoiding the rush for standard appointments which fill up quickly as the semester progresses.
Consistent Mentorship: You will work with the same consultant throughout the semester, allowing them to become deeply familiar with your project's history and your personal voice.
Hours & Expectations
You may register for 1, 2, or 3 credit hours. The number of credit hours determines your required weekly time with your consultant:
30 minutes per week
1 hour per week
1.5 hours per week

- Attend sessions regularly (more than 3 unexcused absences is grounds for an "U").
- Arrive on time and prepared with materials to discuss.
- Complete any work or readings your consultant might assign.
