Personal Resources

Stanford has a number of Academic and Personal Support Services available to help students cope with stress and life crises while at Stanford. The staffs that provide these services are dedicated to encouraging both academic and personal success, and are sensitive to confidentiality. We hope that students will feel confident in fully availing themselves of the resources listed below.

Note that telephone numbers are in the (650) area code format.
