Scheduling an appointment is not required for in-person appointments; you are more than welcome to stop by, and a tutor is happy to help. Virtual appointments require you to schedule an appointment. Scheduling an in-person appointment does guarantee your tutor will be available at a time that best fits your schedule, so that is highly recommended
