At CORE, your voice shapes the way we work. Over the past year, many students told us our appointment options were confusing or too long. You asked for simplicity, clarity, and fewer clicks to get where you need to go, and we listened.
We’ve redesigned our appointment categories to make scheduling faster and easier. Whether you’re exploring majors, looking for a job, or planning a study away experience, our updated system helps you find the right support right away.
What’s New?
Here’s a look at the new appointment categories you’ll see in CORE:
- Augie Choice & Study Away
Learn about Augie Choice funding or how to get started with study away opportunities. - Career Development & Coaching
Get help with resumes, career paths, job searches, and more. - Exploration
Not sure what’s next? Let’s dive into your interests, values, and purpose to find the right path. - First Year Advising / FYI-100
Meet with your first-year advisor to discuss academic and career planning. - Internship Registration
Register an internship for credit or meet with your internship faculty supervisor. (Note: This is not an internship search appointment.) - Other Appointments
Need help with something else? Let’s figure it out together.
Why It Matters
We know your time is valuable. These new categories are designed to help you:
- Quickly understand what each appointment covers
- Connect with the right person on our team
- Feel more confident as you take your next step
Want to Share Feedback?
We’re always listening. If you have suggestions or ideas about how we can improve your experience with CORE, we’d love to hear them. Send us a message or mention it during your next appointment.
