    Step 2: If you plan to provide virtual appointment options to students in the URL field include your personal Zoom Link.  It will show up on all confirmation and reminder email and text message communications to the student.  We recommend using only one Zoom URL link for ALL appointments. 

    Note:  For this option, you must use the waiting room feature in Zoom. Read about the Zoom waiting room here: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/115000332726-Waiting-Room
