  • Free counseling for students, but there are fees after six sessions. There are four contracted therapists, including one therapist on Zoom for people not on campus. There are also four peer coaches, which are personal life coaches for students. They run an area where students can lie down if they are not feeling well. They have covers, heating pads, heated hand massage for writing essays, etc.
