Who Is Eligible
Counseling Services:
Degree-seeking students currently enrolled at the University of Notre Dame are eligible for counseling services.
Consultation Services:
Whether you are faculty, staff, student, friend, or relative, if you are concerned about a Notre Dame student who is in crisis, you may call to consult with a UCC staff counselor who is on-call to discuss how you may refer the student to seek services at UCC. Our staff can also consult with you regarding ways to deal with behavioral or emotional problems experienced by students on campus. Call (574) 631-7336 during regular office hours (9:00 – 5:00 Monday through Friday). You may call after hours if the student’s crisis is serious and urgent. Notre Dame faculty, staff, and student groups are also eligible to call UCC to request other types of consultation, such as educational, program, or organizational consultation services.
Outreach Services:
Notre Dame faculty, staff, and student groups are eligible to call UCC to request one or more of our staff to present a workshop or program to your class, group, or organization.
