Our Mission

The Counseling Center is dedicated to providing high-quality academic, career, and personal counseling—as well as meaningful guidance instruction—to a diverse community of students.

We work with students from all backgrounds and experiences, and we’re here to help you:

  • Make sense of your academic and career options
  • Deal with personal issues that might be getting in the way
  • Explore your interests, strengths, and possible career paths
  • Find resources on campus and in the community that can help you grow

We don’t just see you as “a student.” We see you as a whole person.

Same-Day Appointments

Did you know you can show up early in the morning and secure an appointment for later that day? Same-day appointments are available every day but Wednesdays are your best bet as more counselors are available. TIP: Show up by 8 a.m. to make sure you snag an appointment!

Walk-In Visits

These shorter visits with a counselor are best if you need clarification on a specific issue, like whether to add or drop a specific course. For more comprehensive guidance, you might be better off making an appointment. TIP: Walk-ins are available every day, with special extended hours every Wednesday until 7 p.m.!

Send a Question

Got a burning question about an issue or problem? You can submit it anytime! TIP: This works best for students inquiring about very specific things, like which course to take in a specific area. For bigger discussions, you'll want to visit with a counselor in person.
