Student Services and Student Success
The College of Health and Human Services is committed to your success - in the classroom, in the clinic, and in your life after WMU.
Advisors, DEI staff, and student ambassadors are available in the CHHS Student Engagement Center (in the atrium, near the grand staircase) Monday through Friday. Stop in if you're not quite sure where to find the help you need. Our staff can connect you to resources in the college or elsewhere on campus.
We're here to help prepare you for a career that is high in demand, high in meaning, high in satisfaction and unsurpassed in impact.
Speak with a student ambassador
Our student ambassadors would love to meet with you to talk about programs and opportunities within our college! Use the button to the right to set up a virtual (or phone) meeting with a CHHS student.
Or, if you'd rather, you can email our students with questions and one of them will get back to you with answers.

Tour the college
College tours are a chance for you to see our beautiful building, meet faculty and talk with our student ambassadors, who can answer your questions about our programs and talk to you about what it's like to be a student at WMU and at CHHS.
Academic Advising
The academic advisors empower undergraduate students with information, support and guidance to create a successful and timely graduation plan. This includes individualized program planning, course sequencing, course registration and more.

Success Coaching
Success Coaching is about helping you manage your time to achieve academic and personal goals, identify personal strengths and build communication skills and connect with campus resources and services. An anatomy peer coach is another CHHS student who can guide you through anatomy simulations using the Anatomage Table.
Library skills
Diana Sachs, health and human services librarian and professor at University Libraries, will be in the Student Engagement Center to meet with students. Monday afternoons from 1 to 3 p.m. starting Sept. 11. Make an appointment with Diana or simply stop in the engagement center on Monday afternoon.

Meet our ambassadors
Our student ambassadors wear many hats. They meet with prospective students and their families, they work in our office, but first and foremost, they are students in our programs. Here are some "day in the life" videos of our fantastic student ambassadors to give you a taste of what to expect when you choose WMU:
Events
We host a variety of events for CHHS students. We also want to connect students to valuable events held virtually and across campus.
An app to help you succeed
CHHS students have a unique opportunity to participate in a research study to support and measure student success while using the Goal Scaling Solutions App and engaging with a professional success coach from the College of Health and Human Services.
With Goal Scaling Solutions, you can succeed by visualizing your progress and communicating with your program mentors about your goal progress. GSS can be accessed online or via our app, both of which are HIPAA and FERPA protected.
Enroll in the research study.
Contact us if you have any questions.
