Personal and Academic Counseling

Counseling services promote student development and assist students with personal, physical, or academic issues. Helping students adjust to college life, handle the stress of a busy academic schedule, balance personal, academic and extracurricular activities and develop study and test-taking strategies are examples of some of the assistance available to students. If students require counseling on academic matters, they should seek the help and assistance of their advisors. Academic counselors are also available from the Center for Academic Services. For students experiencing personal, developmental, or social problems, students may access confidential assistance through QUMS Counseling Services. This is a service staffed by licensed clinicians who may also act as a referral source for students requiring additional services off campus.
