IMPORTANT CHANGES DUE TO COVID-19 (CORONAVIRUS)

GT Pre-Graduate Advising offers remote advising appointment and drop-ins as part of our regular practice. Due to COVID-19, we will be advising 100% virtually until further notice.  Click here for updates about GT's response to COVID-19. 

Some Pre-Teaching FAQs are:

Will I be able to make a Pre-Teaching advising appointment?

Yes! The pre-teaching advisor will be available for remote advising appointments through phone, Skype, Google Hangout, or Tech's Bluejeans app (https://bluejeans.gatech.edu).  To make a full-length appointment, go to www.gatech.gradesfirst.com.  Put your preferred virtual platform and contact info in the comments section.

Note:  All appointments are Eastern Time Zone. If you live in a different time zone, please indicate where you are located in the commnts section. This will help in the event that your appointment needs to be rescheduled. 

Will I be able to attend Pre-Teaching drop-in hours?

Yes! Drop-ins will be available through the Bluejeans interface. 

Please note that Bluejeans drop-ins are public spaces; anybody with the appropriate links can join those meetings, so they are not ideal for private conversations. Quick, general questions are best for the Bluejeans hour. Schedule an appointment via GradesFirst for more personal conversations. 

You can join Bluejeans drop-ins at these hours:

Mondays 8:30-9:30 am (Eastern Standard Time):  https://bluejeans.com/4007039561
Thursdays 3:00-4:00 pm (Eastern Standard Time):  https://bluejeans.com/4007039561

NOTE: Advising via videoconference makes ensuring FERPA privacy difficult.  Advisors will conduct video advising in a private location and recommend that students do the same to limit the amount of information which could be overheard by others in the vicinity.  By agreeing to videoconference-advising, students are confirming they understand this situation.
