- Nutrition Coaching - Helps students explore their eating habits, find balance, and meet their nutrition needs through personalized education and collaborative goal setting.
- Wellness Coaching - Supports students with identifying opportunities for improving their holistic wellness in all dimensions. Commons areas of support include relationships, academics, stress, transitions, and balance in different settings.
- BASICS/CASICS - These programs are offered for all Ohio State students who may want to explore their alcohol and drug use, but the goal of the program is to reduce risky behaviors and harmful consequences of alcohol or cannabis abuse.
Our services are offered Monday-Friday during SWC business hours - appointments are 45-minutes long and students can see a coach within 48-hours. We are also excited to be sharing space in the Buckeye Commons with opportunities for drop-in coaching - information will be shared soon!
