You always have someone to talk to at Holy Cross

Three female students enjoying some winter fun outdoorsCollege life places a number of new demands on students: increased academic pressure, navigating new—and old—relationships, and dealing with homesickness and change. It’s common for college students to experience depression and anxiety as they deal with these changes.

Student counseling and Health Services are here to help.
