How does drop-in advising work?
No appointment is needed. It is first-come, first-served, so you may need to wait in line. Click on the registration link that is emailed to you to join anytime during the advising hours posted on the YI calendar.
If you have a question that you think will take longer than 5-10 minutes, please book an appointment instead. We cannot advise on permanent residency during drop-in advising as these questions require more time to discuss.
Please note that depending on the volume, the session may be conducted as a group advising session. If the nature of your questions requires confidentiality, please book a 1:1 session with an international student advisor here: https://yorkinternational.yorku.ca/international-student-advising/
