Virtual 1:1 Advising Appointments
Thanks for your interest in UC Berkeley Law! Individual advising appointments are currently suspended. We encourage you to join us during virtual office hours if you would like to connect. Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate walk-in advising appointments.
Virtual Office Hours
You have questions – we have answers! Join us for virtual office hours, where members of the Admissions team are available to answer your questions. As the name suggests, office hours are intended to be drop-in sessions, so you may join or leave at any time within the given timeframe. We will be using the chat and raise hand feature to answer questions, depending on your preference. Please note that office hours are not individual, and everyone in the room is invited to ask a question and hear the answer, so you should refrain from asking highly personal questions or sharing sensitive information. All times listed below are Pacific Standard Time. Click the links below to register for the Zoom meeting.
