Drop-Ins: Northern Kentucky University, Greater Cincinnati Region

What is a drop-in?

Drop-in hours are a great option for students who have quick questions that don't require a full advising appointment.

Examples of these questions are:

How do I drop a course?
Whom do I contact to get a hold removed?

Drop-ins are offered in-person and virtually throughout the semester. See below for upcoming dates.

If attending in person, drop-ins are held in GH 404. Stop by our front desk and ask to see the drop-in advisor* or a peer coach based on your question and/or timeframe.

* If you are planning to meet with a drop-in advisor, please be aware that you may not be meeting with your assigned advisor specifically, but all advisors are cross-trained and happy to help you with any question you may have.

Should I drop-in with a peer coach or an advisor?

Peer Coach	Advisor
Questions about: Navigating MyNKU (class registration, degree audit, etc.) Navigating Handshake How to read major, minor, and FOK checklists Tips and Tricks (student life, time management, etc.) Favorite courses in major How to get involved	Questions about: Dropping a course Campus resources Internship process Graduation process Understanding policies and procedures

Advisors and Peer Coaches cannot remove holds during a drop-in appointment. Instead, we can inform you of the process or appropriate office to have the hold removed which in some cases is to schedule an advising appointment.
