Counselling services are sought out by students for a variety of reasons. Students receive assistance and empowerment from counsellors in order to develop their potential, improve their mental health and wellness, set their academic and personal goals, and succeed in achieving those goals.

Both intellectually and mentally, the Counsellors at Vellore Institute of Technology are always available to meet the needs of their students. They are here to provide them with a variety of remedies for the emotional problems that they are experiencing. The Counsellors are lending a helping hand to the youngsters so that they can work through their problems at an earlier stage when they are still manageable.

At the time of your initial consultation, you will receive all of the information you require pertaining to privacy and confidentiality. Your Counsellor will go through this information with you and react to any questions or concerns that you might have. This would be acceptable behaviour according to the standards of the University.

"Emotional well-being is just as important to us as Breathing is"
