How do the Counseling Deans (Student Support Services or S3) relate with the Mental Health Service?
If a student requires a change in housing or needs to be excused from an exam because of a personal problem, he or she should contact S3 (617-253-4961), not MIT Medical. The S3 staff can help negotiate with professors and address academic, housing, and other personal concerns. MIT Medical will not share personal information with S3 without your permission. The above was prepared by the mental health work group of the MIT Student Health Advisory Council with input from the staff of MIT Medical’s Mental Health Service.
