Appointments & Drop-Ins

Individual Appointments

All current students have an assigned Gateway Career Counselor. Individual Career Counselor appointments are available Monday-Friday during business hours year-round, including during summer and winter break. When making an appointment, students can select the topic(s) they would like to discuss (such as major exploration, career exploration, internship search, job search, graduate school, interviewing, documents (resume/cover letter) or other topic of choice) as well as whether they would like to meet in-person (201 Hogg) or Virtual on Handshake.

  • Via HandshakeOnce logged in, select “Career Center” and then “Appointment” to find a date and time with your Gateway Counselor that works for you. OR
