In our office, we strive to implement a scheduling system that is convenient for both students and Auburn Abroad Coordinators. After careful consideration, we are excited to announce that we have transitioned to Advise Assist, Auburn’s official scheduling platform. This new system is designed to simplify the process for everyone. Once students log in, they are automatically matched with their designated coordinator, based on their college affiliation.
Our dedicated coordinators are assigned as follows:
MacKenzie McCoy
(mlm0177@auburn.edu) College of Education, College of
Engineering, College of Forestry and Wildlife Sciences, and College of Liberal Arts
Sarah Riley
(scr0003@auburn.edu) College of Architecture and Design,
Honors College, and College of Human Sciences
Skylar Tucker
(sjb0048@auburn.edu)
College of Agriculture, College of
Business, College of Nursing, College of Science and Mathematics,
College of
Pharmacy, and College of Veterinary Medicine
This system significantly enhances coordination and streamlines scheduling, benefiting both students and Auburn Abroad Coordinators. By using Advise Assist, students are automatically connected to their designated coordinator based on their college affiliation. This seamless process eliminates the guesswork for students, ensuring they are paired with the right advisor who is best suited to answer their specific questions and provide tailored guidance. Not only does this save time for students, but it also helps coordinators manage their appointments more efficiently, allowing for smoother communication and more productive meetings. In short, Advise Assist ensures a more organized, efficient, and user-friendly experience for everyone involved.
To better support students with busy and unpredictable schedules, Auburn Abroad Coordinators offer walk-in hours in addition to scheduled appointments. These walk-in hours provide students with the flexibility to access advising services without the need for a prior booking, making it easier to fit into their often-packed calendars. Whether students have last-minute questions, urgent concerns, or need quick guidance on study abroad opportunities, walk-in hours ensure they can get the support they need in a timely manner. This approach is especially valuable for those balancing academic commitments, extracurricular activities, and part-time jobs, as it removes the pressure of finding a specific time in advance to meet with an advisor. By making themselves more available through walk-in hours, the Auburn Abroad Coordinators aim to reduce stress for students and offer personalized, on-the-spot assistance, ensuring that students can make informed decisions even when time is tight. This added accessibility highlights the commitment of the Auburn Abroad office to providing comprehensive and flexible support for all students, regardless of their schedules.
Auburn Abroad remains dedicated to enhancing the student experience by providing efficient, flexible, and accessible advising services. With the introduction of Advise Assist, students are seamlessly matched with the right coordinator, ensuring that their questions are addressed promptly and effectively. The additional walk-in hours reflect our understanding of students’ busy schedules, offering them the opportunity to connect with advisors when it best suits their needs. Whether through scheduled appointments or convenient walk-ins, Auburn Abroad is committed to guiding students through their study abroad journeys, providing personalized support every step of the way. We look forward to helping students explore and achieve their international education goals.
