To all families and faculty members

To all family members

Are there any concerns in your daily life or when you look at the report card you receive from your university? These may be signs that the student is in difficulties. It is best for the student to seek appropriate help themselves, but if the student does not realize the problem on their own, or if they realize it but are reluctant to talk to someone about it, we also provide consultations for family members only.

If you are unsure of what to do, please contact the Student Counseling Office. We will work together to think about what kind of approach would be best. We will also introduce you to various departments on campus and specialized institutions outside the university, if necessary. Please note that we cannot disclose information about the usage status or consultation content of individual students who are already visiting the Student Counseling Office without their consent. Thank you for your understanding.

Yamanashi Eiwa College Alumni Association newsletter, Kakehashi, also reports on how students are doing each year in its column.
