Civic Leadership and Fellowships Advising
CCL staff advisers are available online for consultations. Advising hours are held Monday through Friday, year-round, including the summer.
We’re excited to announce that you can now book appointments during our advising hours. While signing up for a 15-minute appointment is encouraged, it’s not a requirement. You can sign up for an appointment here.
If the advising hours listed do not fit your schedule, please email the advisers directly to find a more suitable time. Click the adviser's name to access their email.
Students are encouraged to come to advising for any range of needs including:
- Pursuing fellowships
- Looking for civic & community-engaged opportunities
- Identifying goals & values
- Finding social justice-minded community at Rice
- Simply looking to learn more about who we are and what we do!
We support students through the full trajectory of your education and post-graduate planning. From first years just looking to get involved to seniors and even alumni applying for fellowships and other post-graduate opportunities. Across the board, the easiest way to find out if we can help you with what you need to just to make an appointment and have a chat!
To ensure a productive and professional online space for our staff and students, logging into Zoom office hours requires a verified Zoom sign-in. Office hours are automatically recorded on the off-chance that an unauthorized user accesses and disrupts the session. You may request recording to be paused when you are admitted from the waiting room. All recordings are deleted at the conclusion of advising hours, with the exception of unauthorized activity that needs to be reported.
Advising hours are virtual and can be accessed through the same zoom link: VIRTUAL ADVISING HOURS ZOOM LINK
If you're looking to meet with someone in particular, please see the schedule below, which shows who you will normally see at each given advising hour (subject to change as needed).
If the advising hours listed do not fit your schedule, please email the advisers directly to find a more suitable time. Click the adviser's name to access their email.
If you'd rather meet in person, feel free to email us (ccl@rice.edu) to schedule an appointment.
