Walk-in hours are for questions that can be answered in less than 15 minutes, and appointments are not required. Students may meet virtually with an advisor to ask general questions related to employment, immigration status, etc. 

Virtual walk-in hours for current students are Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from:

• 9AM - 11 AM
• 1PM - 3PM

• Students can also use the booking system at Temple University International Student and Scholar Services (office365.com) to schedule an appointment. 

All requests/applications should be submitted to ISSS using the applications available at noncredit.temple.edu/isss.
