ATHENS, Ohio -- Counseling and Psychological Services (CPS) at Ohio University is again offering a special career counseling program for prospective adult students from June 21, 1999 through August 20, 1999.

The program is designed for non-traditional students - persons who have been out of school for some time and are now considering enrolling at the university level to begin college studies, to resume college studies, or to seek an additional degree. People who wish to take advantage of this special program to discuss their concerns about resuming their education should contact CPS for an appointment.

Interested persons may elect to have an individual interview with a counselor to explore vocational options and make educational plans. They may also elect to take an interest inventory to help identify possible areas of career interests. If the interest inventory is taken, prospective students will then meet with a counselor individually to discuss the results of their plans.

There is a minimal charge for the interest inventory but no charge for the counseling.

If you would like to participate in this counseling program, stop by Counseling and Psychological Services on the third floor of Hudson Health Center on the Ohio University Campus from 7:30 a.m. to noon and 12:30 p.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday or telephone 740-593-1616.
