How long would I meet with a PeerKnight?

PeerKnights sessions are about 45 minutes long. During your initial session, you will most likely come up with some short-term goals to help you accomplish your long-term goals. After your initial session, you can schedule a follow-up appointment with you PeerKnight to check back in and update them on the progress you made towards accomplishing your goals. We recommend meeting with a PeerKnight several times over one or two semesters.
