Student Appointment No Show Departmental Procedures
The Career Center maintains a busy schedule with appointments, on-campus interviews and career and service-related events. We encourage students to be professional and keep scheduled appointment times. We understand that sometimes situations occur which may prevent that; but it is important to be professional in responding to those situations (Please call the office at (717) 477-1484 if you are unable to keep your scheduled appointment/interview time). Failure to keep scheduled appointments prevents others from scheduling appointments; and it reflects poorly on the student, the Career Center and the institution when students fail to keep scheduled interview times. The Career Center has developed a “Student Appointment No Show/Cancellation Procedures” which will be followed. Multiple occurrences of missed appointments will result in suspension of services to the Career Center until approval/reinstatement from the Executive Director.
