Resources for Students
The Division of Student Affairs provides a broad range of essential
support services and resources to help UCSB students handle the
challenges of university life.
Help during exams
Students with disabilities may request academic accommodations for
exams online through the UCSB Disabled Students Program at
http://dsp.sa.ucsb.edu. Please make your
requests for exam accommodations through the online system as early in
the quarter as possible to ensure arrangement.
Managing stress
Personal concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationships, depression,
cultural differences, can interfere with the ability of students to
succeed and thrive. For helpful resources, please contact UCSB
Counseling & Psychological Services (CAPS) at 805-893-4411 or visit
http://counseling.sa.ucsb.edu
Financial Crisis Response Team
The UCSB Financial Crisis Response Team exists to assist UCSB students
who may be facing a financial crisis or urgent financial need. In
order to apply for emergency funding, please first email
FinancialCrisis@sa.ucsb.edu. Within 1-2 business days, a Financial Aid
Advisor will contact you for your next steps.
Gender and Sex Discrimination Policy and Student Support
Under Title IX, university students are protected from harassment and
discrimination based on gender and sex. If a student feels
uncomfortable or in need of support at any time related to their
gender, sex, and/or sexual orientation, please contact your TA and/or
course instructor immediately. If a student would like to disclose
information related to pronouns, name changes, or identities, we
encourage you to do so. UCSB's Resource Center for Sexual and Gender
Diversity on the 3rd floor of the Student Resource Building is also
available to advocate and be of and support to students.
Food security
If you are facing any challenges securing food or housing and believe this
may affect your performance in the class, you are urged to meet with a Food
Security and Calfresh Advocate who is aware of the broad variety of
resources that UCSB has to offer (see their drop-in hours at
food.ucsb.edu). You are also urged to contact the professor or teaching
assistant if you are comfortable doing so. Please visit food.ucsb.edu for
additional resources including Calfresh, the AS Food Bank, and more.
Responsible scholarship
Honesty and integrity in all academic work is essential for a valuable
educational experience. The Office of Judicial Affairs has policies,
tips, and resources for proper citation use, recognizing actions
considered to be cheating or other forms of academic theft, and
students’ responsibilities. This information is available on their
website at: http://judicialaffairs.sa.ucsb.edu. Students are
responsible for educating themselves on the policies and to abide by
them.
Furthermore, for general academic support, we encourage students to
visit Campus Learning Assistance Services (CLAS) early and often. CLAS
offers instructional groups, drop-in tutoring, writing and ESL
services, skills workshops and one-on-one consultations. CLAS is
located on the third floor of the Student Resource Building, or visit
http://clas.sa.ucsb.edu.
Mental Health Statement
Students may feel overwhelmed or depressed with coursework, stress
and/or other personal challenges. If you find yourself, or another
student, in need of support, please do not hesitate to reach out to
Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS), 24/7 at (805)
893-4411. http://caps.sa.ucsb.edu
