Ways to Connect & Get Support
For the remainder of the academic year, our office will operate remotely Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm. We remain available by phone, email, and through our other service options outlined below.
In addition to our on-demand, online resources, we offer the following face-to-face ways to support you:
- Workshops: Group presentation with time for Q&A.
- Virtual Career Center Drop-ins: TThis service will be discontinued after winter quarter as we transition to a new group support model in spring quarter. Visit our Events page to view remaining winter quarter drop-in sessions.
- In-Person Drop-in Career Help: Launching spring 2026. Stop by with any career question. This is a pop-up, drop-in model where a career counselor briefly assists multiple students individually in a shared space, with opportunities to learn from others when similar questions come up.
