After Hours and Emergency Information

Student Health and Counseling is open 9 am - 6 pm Monday through Friday, with evening medical appointments on Mondays until  8 pm. The following is information about accessing services after hours. Students should take their insurance card with them whenever they access off-campus medical care.

Counseling Services After-Hours:

If you need mental health services after-hours, a Student Health and Counseling psychologist is on-call 24 hours a day for emergency phone consultation. Access the on-call psychologist by contacting Carleton Security (507-222-4444) and asking to speak to the psychologist on-call. Security will take your name and number (but ask no other questions) and the on-call psychologist will call you back at the number you provided.
