If you are an NDSU student in crisis during office hours:
The Counseling Center is open M-F 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. during the school year, and M-F 7:30 a.m.-4:00 p.m. during summer and school breaks. We are located at 212 Ceres Hall, and our phone number is 701-231-7671.

Students in crisis will be seen as soon as possible. It is helpful to call before coming to the Counseling Center in order to determine counselor availability.  When calling, be sure to tell the receptionist that you have an emergency and need to be seen at the earliest possible time.  NOTE: If you are having a medical emergency, please call 911 for help.
