Advising and Personal Support

MSS Professional Staff maintain an open door policy for 1:1 meetings with students to discuss concerns related to your cultural, social, and personal development during your time at UVA. Whether you are encountering new cross-cultural experiences and would like to talk with someone about them or you looking for ways to get involved with activities or organizations aligned with our mission, we are here for your support. Please stop by or contact a staff member to set up an appointment.

Student Organization Support

MSS serves as a primary home for many cultural and social justice organizations. Not only do we provide reservable spaces in our student centers for meeting and programming, our professional staff serve in advising roles for various CIOs. Whether you belong to an existing organization that needs assistance or would like to start a new organization, feel free to contact us and we can assist you and/or connect you with other offices and centers that can assist.
