A DigiPen education can be a rewarding experience for our students, but also a demanding one. While academic and professional success is always the goal, we know that during the excitement of finals week or crunch time for a team project, it’s easy to forget to take care of your physical and mental wellbeing, too.

The Student Services listed below can help balance the many commitments and priorities you have as a DigiPen student. Our objective is to provide you with resources that can help you help yourself, while also giving you the appropriate channels to locate and find help from others. If you have any questions about these services, or can’t find the type of resource that you need, don’t hesitate to reach out to us at (425) 558-0299 or studentaffairs@digipen.edu.
