Oh hey! Welcome to the community.
We’ve all been there. Every student wants to move in at 9am on the first day, the back and forth emails with students to schedule a meeting, the emails to sign up for an event. Students don’t want to email, and you have more impactful ways to spend your time.
That’s why we’ve introduced Appointments, a new feature within eRezLife designed to make scheduling simpler, more organized, and better connected to your work.
Built for the Way Residence Life Works
Appointments isn’t just another calendar. It’s designed around the unique workflows of student housing and residence life, helping staff manage appointments while keeping everything connected to the student record. Whether you’re coordinating move-in times, booking conduct meetings, scheduling student leader interviews, organizing RA one-on-ones, or offering office hours, Appointments provides one place to manage it all.
You can control availability based on information already stored in eRezLife, such as residence assignment, application cohort, building, or other custom profile fields. Students only see the events that are relevant to them, reducing confusion and helping staff spend less time directing students to the correct booking option.
Reducing Administrative Work
Don’t waste your time scheduling! Staff can create appointment windows, set capacity limits, and automate confirmations and reminders, helping reduce manual coordination while giving students an easy way to book at a time that works for them. The best part? It’s all in the same eRezLife system – no jumping between windows or creating another log in. Just click and book.
Key Capabilities
Appointments includes features that support your work, including:
- Restricting appointment availability using residence assignments, application cohorts, buildings, or custom profile fields.
- Managing appointment availability and capacity from one centralized location.
- Sending automated confirmations and reminder emails to help reduce missed appointments.
- Recording appointment history directly within the student’s eRezLife profile.
- Supporting a variety of use cases, including move-in scheduling, conduct meetings, staff interviews, student leadership appointments, office hours, and community programming.
Supporting Meaningful Student Connections
Scheduling may seem like a small part of residence life, but every appointment, booking, meeting and event represents an opportunity to connect with a student. By simplifying the logistics behind those interactions, residence life teams can spend less time coordinating calendars and more time focusing on the work that matters most—building community and supporting student success.
Welcome to the community. We’re glad you’re here.
