Parents and friends are to contact MUPD at 732-571-4444 or call 911 if there are concerns regarding imminent safety and they cannot connect with Counseling and Prevention Services (CPS). In the case of an emergent psychiatric crisis, the student may be directed to an Emergency Department for an immediate evaluation. CPS abides by MU’s Student Medical and Mental Health Emergency Policy.
Counselors are typically available by scheduled appointment when the office is open. However, in the event of an urgent and non-life-threatening mental health matter, CPS might be able to accommodate a student for a same-day appointment, although there is no guarantee.
