A student can complete a counselling request application to see the counsellor, with a quality coordinator. The request is entered into the counsellor appointment register. A date when the counselor is available is given to the student within twenty four hours of the request, and the appointment date will be scheduled within four days of the request.
Each face to face counselling session is scheduled to last for one hour. However, more than one session can be arranged. You must inform the administration of any request to cancel a counselling session at least 24 hours before the appointment session.
