- Career Center
- Counseling and Psychological Services
- Health Services
- Orientation and First-Year Programs
- Office of International Education
- Student Activities

Departments within the division strive not only to meet specific student needs, but to provide general student direction and guidance, including referral to resources available both within and outside the university. The division places particular emphasis on developing community and integrating various constituencies to expedite student growth, including faculty, staff, alumni, parents, trustees, and members of the broader local, national, and international communities.
The division holds as its ambition that each student reaches his or her highest potential in the areas of intellectual and artistic development, personal and professional skill development, leadership development, and contribution to the larger community.
