About OCDS
Office of Counseling & Disabilities Services

The Office of Counseling and Disabilities Services (OCDS) provides students with an array of services and resources that will assist not only in their academic endeavors, but also their personal and professional aspirations. Committed to success, the following are some of the services OCDS provides:

  • Assistance with the leaves-of-absence (personal or medical), and re-admission processes
  • Assistance with Change in Educational Plans and the withdrawal process
  • Assistance with acquiring/providing academic accommodations to students with disabilities
  • Academic support
  • Crisis triage

Of course, we are also an ear if you need to simply come in and talk! College is a time where students develop into individuals, explore new things, and gain independence. Sometimes we find that the demands of academics and life pull us in many different directions. Don’t get overwhelmed—stop in to talk about it! The key to maintaining a healthy balance between our academic, professional, and personal lives is to seek out and utilize the resources and support services available to us.
