Crossing Cultures Group

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the CAS International Student Coffee Hour yesterday!  It was a productive conversation on student wellness and the many different resources available to you as an NYU student.  As promised, here is some additional information regarding the group counseling session available for international students:

"Sometimes a problem is better addressed through Group Counseling than individual appointments. Talking to other students who have had similar experiences provides support and perspective. A counseling group can be powerfully healing - for some students, one of the most rewarding experiences during their NYU years."

Crossing Cultures 

Tuesdays, 5-6pm

A group designed to be a place to address some of the challenges inherent in cross cultural transition and identity, as well as a place to connect with others who are going through similar experiences.

To sign up for a group, you must arrange to speak to the group leader 

by calling (212) 998-4780.

I Feel the Stress

With the sun coming out, things may feel more calm and your fingers are thawing. But you may also have that little voice reminding you about your homework, your summer plans, and your finals. While you can use the University Learning Center for academic and time management support, don't forget to take care of yourself.

NYU has an abundance of opportunities and resources to take advantage of, from the comfort of your own home (or the library...depending on how much work you have to do).
