The NJIT Center for Counseling and Psychological Services (C-CAPS) is committed to assisting students in the achievement of their academic goals as well as benefiting from their personal experiences on campus.
College life can be personally challenging and stressful at times. We believe that the educational process is an important component of the development of the individual as a whole person.
Our goal is to optimize the college experience and improve the quality of the lives of our students by promoting their mental health and facilitating students’ personal, academic, and professional growth.
Summer Hours
C-CAPS will operate on a modified schedule beginning Monday, May 20th, per the University's summer schedule. C-CAPS will resume Friday hours the week of August 16th.
Personal issues, family, emotional, and other concerns can be challenging and may impact your academic, personal, and overall functioning. C-CAPS provides safe, non-judgmental, and confidential services including individual and group counseling and workshops.
Staffed by psychologists and professional counselors, C-CAPS can help with the transitions and stresses of college life and other psychological concerns or difficulties.
