    Sign up for a virtual appointment with me by clicking available dates on the calendar. When you select a date, a list of times will appear under the calendar—so don't forget to scroll. After you submit your registration, you’ll receive a confirmation email with my Zoom link and additional details. If you don't see a time that works for you, reach out.

    One-on-one appointments are an excellent opportunity for you to ask specific questions about URI and the application process. These conversations are not interviews (which we do not offer).
