While the transition to college can be challenging, these resources may help.

EMPOWERING YOURSELF TO RISE ABOVE

Life is filled with trials and struggles, and the college years are no exception. The litany of new experiences and responsibilities can be overwhelming at times, and students may experience feelings of frustration, sadness, confusion and loneliness. It's important to have an arsenal of tools and support available--so you feel empowered to overcome challenges and embrace the growth that comes with them.
