University Counseling Center

UND Students,

The University Counseling Center has transitioned to offering counseling services for students remotely. We understand this is a new process and want you to be assured that the UCC team is doing everything we can to make this transition as seamless as possible to attend to your mental health and well-being. UCC will be offering remote sessions effective March 27, 2020. Students who had a scheduled appointment with the UND Counseling Center will receive a phone call from our staff regarding your options moving forward. Be safe and take care of yourselves.
