*** Given demand for student appointments, we ask that you cancel any appointment you cannot attend. See our no-show policy for information about missing scheduled appointments with University Career Center staff. In addition, we are only able to hold two appointments at a time and only one appointment per day to allow fair access to appointments for all students.
