Scheduling appointments is completed through Campus Connect. Appointments may be scheduled as in person or virtual, Monday-Thursday.
Drop-in advising is completed virtually through our moderated Zoom call (see below). Drop-ins are available virtually, Monday-Friday, on a first-come basis based on the time a student joins the Zoom waiting room.

Campus Connect sends emails and reminders about scheduled appointments, and depending on circumstances (e.g. needing academic recovery advising) or where they are in their academic career (e.g. first semester New Nole advising), students may also receive invitations to schedule specific types of meetings.

After logging in to Campus Connect, click on the “Reports” tab under the Student Home title.

3. How to schedule an appointment

Note: Appointments are typically scheduled for Monday-Thursday and availability will display for up to three weeks in advance. Appointment availability may be limited or fully booked during peak advising periods.

  1. Click the “Schedule Advising or Tutoring or Study Room” button on the main page of Campus Connect.
  2. On the New Appointment screen, select “Advising” for type of appointment.
    Current COSSPP Students: under service, select “COSSPP Advising for Major” if you are coming in for an updated progress check. Select one of the other “COSS:” services if you are coming in for a specific reason such as Degree in Three or Pre-Law advising.
    Non-COSSPP Students: Scroll down the drop-down menu under “Learn about or change to another Major/Minor” and select the COSSPP program that you wish to speak with an advisor about.
  3. On the availabilities screen, select a date/time that works best for your schedule. If you do not see a time that works for you or if you would prefer to sign in for a first available drop-in meeting, click “View drop-in times.”
    The default view will place you with the first available advisor across all possible available time slots. If you would like to meet with a specific advisor, select “View individual availabilities” – note that students are able to speak with any COSSPP advisor and are not limited to or assigned one specific advisor.
  4. On the Review Appointment Details and Confirm screen, select whether you would like to meet virtually (via Zoom) or in person (in the Bellamy Building). Include comments explaining in more detail to help your advisor prepare for your meeting and a phone number for text reminders.
  5. Confirm your appointment with the Appointment Scheduled screen.

4. How to sign in for virtual drop-ins

Note: Virtual drop-ins are available Monday-Friday on a first come basis. Students are seen in the order that they signed in as an advisor becomes available. There may be extended wait times or the sign in queue may exceed advisor capacity during peak advising periods.

For the Fall 2024 semester, all virtual drop-ins will be conducted via moderated Zoom call.

  1. Link: https://fsu.zoom.us/j/93601869402
  2. Students may sign in to speak with an advisor during the hours listed above.
  3. Students must be signed into Zoom through their FSU account to access the call. See the authentication section below if having issues with logging in.
  4. Wait times before being admitted to the main Zoom call are dependent on how many students are signed in / in line.

Authentication issues logging into Zoom?
