Concern for a Student 

If you are concerned about a student, please tell us by submitting a Care Referral Form to the Student Support Office.

Report a Concern

When concerns are reported, the Care Team, managed by the Student Support Office, will assess the situation, offer support, and provide referrals to the breadth of resources on-campus.

A student of concern is any student who displays behaviors that may interfere with their or others' ability to be successful and function well in the living, learning or work environment. These can include mental and physical health, academics, finances, substance abuse, crime victims or social and emotional well-being.
