All undergraduate and graduate students currently enrolled at AUS are eligible to receive services at UCS.

Our services are free, voluntary and confidential. Appointments may be arranged through the UCS e-mail: ucs@aus.edu, or by visiting UCS on the Language Building, room 018B and LAN 020.

Appointments can normally be scheduled within a few days of your request but may take a week or more during the busiest times. Emergency situations, however, will be dealt with immediately.

Confidentiality

Counseling through UCS is strictly confidential. The information that is shared with a counselor will not be disclosed to another individual or organization without the written consent of the student. Any records maintained by UCS are not part of the student's academic or administrative records and thus are not available to anyone other than the counselor. The only exceptions to this strict policy of confidentiality are situations in which the client is at risk of taking his or her own life if protective measures are not taken, or the client presents a serious danger of violence to another person. For more information about confidentiality, feel free to call and speak with a counselor.
