             Diminished mental health can interfere with optimal academic performance. The source of symptoms might be related to your coursework; if so, please speak with your instructor. However, problems with other parts of your life can also contribute to decreased academic performance. The University Counseling Center (UCC) provides cost-free and confidential mental health services to help you manage personal challenges that threaten your emotional or academic well-being.

Remember, getting help is a smart and courageous thing to do –for yourself and for those who care about you. For more resources please see ucc.nd.edu
