We are here for you.
In light of COVID-19, we are offering support to students virtually. You can make an appointment with us for a phone call or digital Zoom meeting. Email us at studentsuccess [at] emerson.edu or call us at 617-824-8650.
Students may encounter obstacles or difficulties associated with college life—academic, financial, personal, interpersonal, or wellness—or simply seek greater connection and support. Emerson has fantastic resources designed to address the holistic needs of students.
The Office of Student Success helps students to explore their options, navigate campus systems, and connect to services, supports, and each other. And sometimes, we just listen.
Support Options
One-on-One Sessions
Whether you just need help once or are interested in ongoing support, we're here. We encourage students to schedule an appointment to meet with one of our staff members.
Emerson's ConcernCenter
It's easy to feel unsure about which of the many resources available to Emerson students is best suited for the specific issue you are trying to address. ConcernCenter is a search engine for students to find and connect with support options available on- or off-campus. Not sure where to go? Visit Emerson's ConcernCenter for help!
Student Assistance Fund
The Student Assistance Fund makes small awards to help eligible students with indirect costs of attendance such as books, printing and copying costs, film, developing, other required course supplies, personal items, transportation, and food.
Food Access Initiatives
We know some students, especially those living off campus, do not have the means to consistently buy adequate food for themselves. We've compiled a list of all the ways a student at Emerson can find support in accessing food.
Leaving and Returning to Emerson
Circumstances and opportunities may present themselves. We are here to assist you in exploring your options.
