Care and Concern

Support and Resources for Student Concerns

Your academic experience is of paramount importance. If during your education, you encounter situations or behaviors that are worrying, disruptive, or impeding your or other students' performance, you can reach out to the World Campus Care and Concern staff.

Examples of situations with which we can assist include academic distress, financial insecurity, housing or food insecurity, death of an immediate family member, family emergency/crisis, mental health concerns, medical emergency and/or hospitalization, natural disasters, and unexpected events or challenges.

If you are experiencing challenges that impact your emotional well-being, you can review the mental health services available to you as a Penn State World Campus student.
