U of A Cares is a program through the Dean of Students office that offers a supportive and encouraging partnership with students by linking them with appropriate resources that will allow them the opportunities to overcome barriers on their path to success; both personal and educational.

The Office of the Dean of Students support students during emergency situations and are advocates for students during academic and personal crises.

If you’re concerned about someone’s mental or emotional well-being, contact U of A Cares. Informing them of your concern can be the critical factor in getting that student help. The U of A Cares team can help in dealing with issues such as:

  • Injury
  • Illness
  • Death in the family or death of a friend
  • Money problems
  • Mental illness concerns
  • Scholarship issues
