How to make an appointment

In brief, students can make an appointment by visiting the CPS offices, or calling 212-854-2878. Detailed instructions as follows:

  1. Regularly scheduled appointments can be made during the Main Office Clinical Hours, which are as follows:
    1. Monday through Thursday: 8:00am - 6:30pm
    2. Friday, 8:00am - 4:30 p.m.
  2. In order to make a regularly scheduled appointment, call (212) 854-2878. You will be provided with a phone appointment with a counselor. Purportedly, these are scheduled within 1 business day of your initial call, but there is anecdotal evidence that the phone appointment may be scheduled up to 3 business days after your call. This phone appointment may lead to an in-person appointment, according to the urgency of your need.
  3. You should arrive 10 minutes early to your appointment to fill out necessary forms.
  4. You may also meet with a counselor during walk-in hours out of a variety of offices located in Residence Halls. Call (212) 854-2878 day-of to confirm that walk-in hours are open for locations following their normal schedule:
  5. If you have a psychiatric emergency outside of these available hours, you can either contact a clinician on call at (212) 854-9797, or visit your nearest emergency room. The nearest ER for students at the Morningside Campus is St. Luke’s-Roosevelt Hospital Center Psychiatric Emergency Room (212 523-4000).
