Student Health and Counseling

Student Health and Counseling Services (SHACS) offers health and mental health services to support your personal and academic success of Grinnell students. We utilize a holistic approach to emphasis the importance of prevention, intervention, and recovery for acute health concerns. Most of our services are covered by the cost of tuition with no additional cost to the students. We also help students connect with medical providers/specialists in the community when needed.

Nursing appointments may be scheduled online, however counseling appointments must be made in person or via phone at 641-269-3230.
