STUDENT Support

 

The UD Division of Student Life offers a comprehensive range of student support services to help Blue Hens succeed academically, personally and socially.

 

Some of our work includes supporting students' transitions to UD, securing accommodations for students with disabilities, assisting students as they manage conflict and complex issues and supporting student athletes and veteran and military-connected students. We are dedicated to providing students with the assistance needed to thrive during their time on campus.
