Access Services
Western has a long history of serving students with a wide variety of disabilities, working to ensure each student has the reasonable accommodations and services they need to enjoy academic success. We can provide assistance at all of our campus and regional locations.
To request disability support services and have them in place when classes begin, you will need to make an appointment with the Manager of Access Services, preferably before the semester begins.

Attending college can be stressful. We can help!
Western provides comprehensive counseling services to students at no cost. As trained professionals, our counselors can effectively navigate complex personal, academic, and career barriers that can affect your classroom and future workplace success.
Food Pantry
This Cavalier Cupboard is designed to meet the immediate food needs of Western students by providing them with access to non-perishable food items, hygiene items, school items, diapers, and information on local resources. This service is open to all Western students with a valid student ID. Students are able to choose their own product each visit based on their household size and needs. We encourage individuals to take enough items to cover one week for their household.
