Late Breaks - Virtual Counseling
Undergraduates of UCLA's College of Letters and Science are turning to Virtual Counseling to support them in their academic needs. Monitored by counseling assistants, Virtual Counseling is an online tool developed by UCLA. Students who link to http://my.ucla.edu will find a Web page tailored to their individual academic needs. The site also includes a personal schedule of classes and links to student services, Web sites, deadline information, records of pending requests and an academic calendar. Virtual Counseling is an alternative for students to the standard means of obtaining help.
