Counseling & Psychological Services (CAPS)
There are times in the academic process that students need career counseling.  Perhaps it is a time of finding a college major or it could be feeling that the chosen major was not what was expected. Returning students are often considering a career change.  The counseling process allows students to make an informed personal choice.  A variety of career assessment instruments are available and are often utilized in the career counseling process.
