Student Counselling Service UT
The desk of the Student Counselling Service (the “Rode Balie”) is responsible for individual care and support of UT students at a coordinating level (besides the care educational programmes take for their “own” students). This includes for example a student psychologist, various courses (“self management”, graduating, job application) and the student counsellor.
Student psychologist
You can get help from the student psychologist when you need to talk to someone, for instance when you experience personal problems such as problems in your relation with your parents, friends or fellow students. You do not need a referral: you can make an appointment yourself. The student psychology service aims at having the first session within a week after the student contacted them.
Student counsellor
The student counsellor offers help when you have questions about, for instance, student grants, UT financial support, switching disciplines, problems involved with switching from a school for Higher Vocational Education to University, personal problems, appeal procedures, studying abroad, studying with a disability, and entrance examination (colloquium doctum). In order to make an appointment you need to telephone the secretariat. You have to take the initiative yourself to make an appointment with the student counsellor.
The “Rode Balie” is situated in the Bastille building. For more information, go to: http://www.utwente.nl/studentenbalie/en/
