The counselor is available to students, faculty, and parents as needed regarding university admission, careers advice, or personal matters. Referrals of students can be made by administrators, teachers, students themselves (self-referral), or at the request of parents. The counselor’s office is F102 in the male campus and F102 in the female campus. Students should not visit the counselor without first having made an appointment (except in very exceptional circumstances). If the appointment is during scheduled class time, students must have the permission of the teacher(s) concerned. The student must bring the permission slip signed by the teacher(s) to the appointment.

The counselor will provide individual and group counseling in a variety of subjects, including, but not limited to time management, stress management, test anxiety, and study skills. The counselor will also consult with faculty regarding students and participate in programs geared toward encouraging emotional growth and mental health. The counselor is also available for crisis intervention services if necessary.

The counselor may observe lessons in order to screen for potential behavioral problems, write reports, and make recommendations to faculty and administration regarding placement and will, when requested, participate in family conferences (parent-teacher) when mental health or behavioral issues are involved.
