Student counselling during COVID

What to expect in a student guidance session?

 

A guidance session may focus on all matters related to your life as a student. The point of departure for the session will be your needs and issues.
During the session we can address different aspects such as rules and regulations, choice of courses, your well-being as a student, etc.
The session is a dialogue between you and the counsellor with the purpose of helping you to clarify your situation and get a better understanding of rules and opportunities. The counsellor will listen, ask questions and give you the correct information, but it is your responsibility to present and actively reflect on your challenges, wishes and dilemmas.

  • You are always welcome to contact your counsellors. If we cannot help you, we will usually be able to refer you to someone who can.
  • All counsellors have a duty of confidentiality. This means that we treat all inquiries with strict confidentiality.
  • Are you contacting us by email, please use your AU email address. The AU mail system is a secured system that gives you the best protection of your personal information.

At Aarhus BSS you meet two types of counsellors; the student counsellors and the student welfare counsellors:

The Student Counsellors

We are students and we can guide you about rules and options at your degree programme in relation to for example:

  • Illness
  • Exams
  • Courses and registration for courses
  • Preapproval and credit transfer
  • Planning of your degree programme
  • And much more

If we are not able to help you, we can inform you about where you can also get help.

Student counsellors

In addition to sending us an email and booking a meeting (on campus or via Zoom), you can see in the table below when you can:  

  • give us a call during our telephone hours on Tel. +45 93 52 27 19
  • visit us for drop-in counselling at Bartholins Allé 9, building 1350, room 125.    

Stop by and drop-in during the opening hours if you have a quick question for the student counsellors.

If you need to go into depth with questions about, for example, application for exemption and study planning, we recommend that you book a meeting instead.
