New school year. In a pandemic. With no idea about how classes will go. Plus the stress of a challenging curriculum. Sounds like a lot to handle!
If you are feeling a bit overwhelmed or just need some tools or strategies to help you balance everything, Boise State has resources you can use.
If you would like to speak with a mental health counselor or access other mental health resources, you can call Boise State Counseling Services at (208) 426-1459 to schedule a tele-mental health counseling session, and/or visit the Boise State Counseling Services website, which offers links to counseling services off-campus, as well as other sources of information and assistance on mental health. There are occasions when a problem or crisis feels too overwhelming to wait for a scheduled appointment. If this is the case, Counseling Services have staff available during standard hours of operation to more immediately assess your needs.
Also, if you are feeling challenged while working on your studies, don’t hesitate to speak with your instructor. Chances are they are facing challenges, too, and will definitely understand. MBE faculty and staff work to help you be successful in your classes. The COEN Advising Office and your academic advisor are also good resources when you just need to get some assistance.
Remember, our commitment is to keep you healthy, safe, and successful while you are attending Boise State. Let us know of anything you need to help you do that.
