The following services are outside the scope of those offered by the Counseling Center, but are available through other offices or agencies.

Intensive, long-term psychotherapy

Individuals who want or need to be seen more than once a week for an extended length of time will be referred to outside sources of help. Students with other special counseling needs which are outside of the scope of Counseling Center services will also be referred to off-campus resources such as our Therapist Referral list.

Evaluation and treatment of medical conditions

For medical conditions, students will be referred to the Student Health Center or other appropriate medical facilities. Of course, there are situations where a student's psychological and medical problems are related, and in such instances, the Counseling Center will work in coordination with the student's treating physicians.

Petitioning for Parking and Car Privledges for Medical Reasons

Freshman and Sophomore students that need to have access to a car for medical reasons can petition through the Dean of Students Office to have an exception to college policy made. Visit "Forms to Request Restricted Parking for Medical Reasons" on the Dean of Students web-site.

Vocational counseling, job placement, part-time, or summer employment

These services are offered by the Offices of Financial Aid and Career Services.

Approval of class schedules or help with course selection

These services can be obtained from the Office of Academic Advising and faculty advisors.

Study strategies to enhance academic performance

The Learning Assistance Progam provides these services through the Dean of Students Office. The Writing Resources Center is another place to get support for writing and oral communication skills.
