Students are able to receive services by visiting the CARES office or contacting their CARES program advisor.  

CARES provides one-on-one and group advising aimed at providing resources to support students’ academic, career, and social-emotional goals. Individual advising appointments typically last 30 minutes and focus on holistic supports for where the individual is at in their unique college journey. Common topics include: 

  • Academic progress 
  • Selecting a major 
  • Tutoring and academic support resources 
  • Career preparation 
  • Research and internship opportunities 
  • Getting involved on campus 
  • Social-emotional and mental health supports 

 

In addition, first and second year students are invited to attend group advising sessions. These one-hour meetings focus on common issues facing students and where to find supports on campus.
