Walk-In/Drop-In

The UAB Career Center offers a virtual “walk-in/drop-in” service available to UAB students without an appointment. The virtual walk-in/drop-in hours are Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. on a first come, first served basis. Click the yellow box below to access the walk-in/drop-in service via Zoom.



Cancellation and No-Show Policy
for Scheduled Appointments

If you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment, please notify our office 24 hours in advance. This allows our staff to offer your appointment time to another student, who is in need of our services. Failure to cancel your appointment within 24 hours, more than once, will result in losing your appointment privileges for the semester; however, you may still utilize our drop-in services.

Piece of Career Advice for current and future Blazers:
My best advice to future Blazers is to become a sponge—absorbing all the information you can while learning! Also, make friends, network, and explore campus! UAB is an excellent resource.
Work hard and stay focused.
