The university has caring professionals dedicated to student success and well-being by identifying concerns, addressing those concerns with the student, and referring them to campus and community resources. Anyone in the Carolina community who feels a student is a risk to themselves or the community can report a concern; including students, parents, faculty and staff, and other community members.
The university’s Care and Outreach Team is an interdisciplinary group representing law enforcement, student conduct, counseling, residence life and other departments. Members work collaboratively to help keep the campus safe when students display behavior that could cause harm to themselves or others.
UofSC’s counselors and psychiatrists provides essential therapy, emotional wellness and medication management for students. Services are available by appointment or walk-in basis. In addition, after-hours services are available by phone.
