Remote Drop-In Advising

Thank you to our campus colleagues in SuccessWorks at the College of Letters and Science, Wisconsin School of Business, Center for Pre-Health Advising, and Cross-College Advising Service for your support & sharing your innovative ideas with the advising community. The following information is one example of how to create a “waiting room” for students during drop-ins using Google Forms and Google Spreadsheets. Follow the three steps below to create your own drop-in process: 1. Watch these videos

• Overview of the drop-in process
• How to create your student intake form and form responses (advisor view)
  • See Student Intake Form and Intake Form Responses below
• How to set up the drop-ins queue (student view)
  • See Drop-Ins Queue below

2. Check out these sample forms

• Student Intake Form – This is what the student will complete to get into the queue for drop-in advising.
• Intake Form Responses (Advisor View) – This is a sheet advisors will see with all student responses from the Student Intake Form. Multiple advisors can view the form and triage students at one time.
• Drop-Ins Queue (Student View) – This is the queue your student will see to know where they are on the drop-in waiting list.
