The Student Counseling Center (SCC) is here to serve and support the emotional and psychological well-being of MICA students.
SCC is dedicated to promoting the psychological wellbeing of MICA students. As a result, SCC provides a broad range of high quality, relevant, and ethical services and resources to the MICA community via our PATHs model, a needs based service delivery model that allows us to develop individualized support plans for our students.
