Where can students get help in coping with test anxiety or other types of academic stress?
A. It’s common for some students to feel anxious, bewildered, or depressed as they learn to deal with their new environment. If a student is feeling stressed for any reason, he or she should talk with the staff at Counseling and Support Services (CSS). CSS, which focuses on short-term counseling, also helps students cope with academic pressures, such as test anxiety, as well as personal problems or concerns. A referral network is available when long-term counseling is appropriate. The Office is located in the University Mall; the phone number is 313-593-5430.
