Pre-Entrance Requirements and Vaccination Policy

All students must complete and submit the following items to our office before enrollment. The forms and supporting documents can be submitted in person, by fax, or by email. Please keep in mind that communications via email over the internet are not secure. Although it is unlikely, there is a possibility that information you include in an email can be intercepted and read by other parties besides the person to whom it is addressed. Please note: students who do not provide these items within the first quarter attended will have a hold placed on their account.

Counseling Services' No-Show Policy

Due to our waitlist and high demand for services, our no-show/late-cancellation policy is as follows: If you would like to cancel or reschedule your counseling appointment for any reason, you need to let Student Wellness Services know at least 24 hours before your appointment.   If we do not hear from you, we interpret that to mean you are choosing to disengage from counseling at this time. As such, you will be removed from the therapist's caseload. If/when you are ready to re-engage in therapy, please give us a call and we will once again place you on our waitlist.
