CAPS is primarily funded by the Health Fee, a mandatory fee that all degree-seeking students pay through fees/tuition each term. Those students who do not pay fees can opt to pay that term’s health fee to access care at CAPS at Well-being Administrative Services on the second floor of the James A. Taylor building.
Most services at CAPS are already paid for with the health fee and offered at no further cost to the student, post-doc, or partner. This includes initial assessments, brief therapy through CAPS or an online provider, group therapy, referral coordination for a community provider, academic interventions, the Multicultural Health Program, embedded therapist services, crisis intervention, and outreach.
Medication Management & ADHD-Related visits
