While classes are in session, we can meet students via Zoom. Schedule an appointment via the WC Calendar and be sure to note your Zoom request on the booking form. These sessions require you to be virtually present at the time of the appointment, but you can schedule your session to take place from anywhere in the world, so long as you have a steady internet connection and a webcam/microphone.
Best for: students enrolled in fully online programs and/or graduate students doing clinicals, fieldwork, who are not regularly on the Duluth campus.

It is your responsibility to allow adequate time for our consultants to provide feedback before due dates.
