handled by an advisor, such as: Requests for Expense Letters, Travel
Signatures, Invitation Letters, Social Security Letters, Concurrent
Enrollment, Payment Request Forms and Human Resources Letters, Enrollment
Verification Letters, and general questions related to employment or
immigration procedures.
Picking Up and Dropping Off Forms and Applications. An advisor is not needed
if the student is merely coming to pick up documents or turning in
