As the semester continues, we want to ensure that Newman University students know how to access various resources available to them on campus.

Here, students can also take advantage of makeup exams, academic accommodations, disability services and F1 international student services. Students can also check out laptops in the Student Success Center, which can be reserved at the front desk.
Appointments for testing, tutoring, career services and room reservations can be made online at Accudemia or at the front desk of the Student Success Center.

Career Services
At Newman, Career Services exists to help students find resources and tools that will help them maximize their potential — whether it be in the form of off-campus jobs, career planning, internships or volunteer opportunities.

Mental health resources at Newman
All full-time graduate and undergraduate students get 12 free in-person counseling sessions per year and unlimited free virtual counseling sessions. Virtual services are sponsored by the Student Government Association. All counseling and referral meetings are confidential.
Students can request appointments through the Virtual Care Group mental health services and speak to a licensed therapist about conditions such as depression and anxiety, bipolar disorders, eating disorders, grief and loss, life changes, panic disorders, stress, relationship issues, trauma, PTSD and more.
Newman employees can receive three in-person and over-the-phone sessions at no cost. To set up a session, visit guidanceresources.com.
