Counselling appointments
Drop-in appointments
Thirty-minute drop-in appointments are available daily, but these can only be booked on the day that you need to see someone (they cannot be booked in advance). These appointments often get booked fast, so come early (8:00 a.m.) to make sure you get a spot.
Scheduled appointments
If you need more time with a counselor, you can book a one-hour appointment in advance. These appointments are available in-person or by video.
Emergency appointments
Emergency appointments are for students who are in immediate crisis. Use this if you're going through something that may threaten your health or safety. If you feel you are in crisis, there is help.
