Academic Risk Counseling
Academic Risk Counseling
The Academic Risk Counseling unit reaches out to students who are struggling with their academic performance. We contact students who are identified as struggling academically and schedule them for an intake meeting, where we work with them to identify the issues that are holding them back. Students who are struggling with academic issues are referred to The American University in Cairo's (AUC) many and varied academic resources such as the tutoring center. Students continue to be supported throughout the semester for their non-academic issues through mental health counseling.
