All students also have access to wellness and counseling services provided by a trained clinical counsellor, through the Student Assistance Program at no additional charge. The Student Assistance Program provides support for individuals with concerns such as: anxiety, stress depression, anger management, time management, procrastination, drug or alcohol abuse, abusive relationships, home life-school-work balance, new parent transition coaching, help with budget and credit card debt and much more. The Student Assistance Program is available to students at all campus locations 24/7, including evenings and weekends. Students can access the Student Assistance Program services on their own or can set up an appointment with the Student Support and Disabilities Coordinator to discuss their concerns.
