I am experiencing personal problems that are affecting my schoolwork.


It can be very difficult to deal with personal problems while going to school. York University has many support resources available, and we encourage students to take advantage of them. Remember, these services are designed for you, to help you cope and succeed with life while at university. Most of these services are confidential and provide a safe environment for you to discuss your situation. 

Student Counselling, Health and Wellbeing offers a range of services including personal counselling, group development workshops, learning skills training, and support for learning disabilities and psychiatric disabilities. More information can be found on their website: https://counselling.students.yorku.ca/ 

There are also many other support services on campus, such as those offered by Bethune College if you are a science student. 

Additional resources may be found in Toronto at 211 Toronto
