HELENE FULD SCHOOL OF NURSING IN CAMDEN COUNTY
STUDENT SERVICES

In keeping with the educational philosophy of the Helene Fuld School of Nursing in Camden County (HFSN) a wide variety of student services are provided. It is our hope that these services will provide additional information and support to the student in need, as well as make the time spent at HFSN a rewarding personal and educational experience.

Counseling
The faculty of HFSN believe that counseling is a service designed to guide the student toward a better understanding of his/her academic problems and potential and to help the student prepare for a nursing career and further education. The Assistant Dean for Student Services is responsible for coordinating the school counseling program and referrals. All faculty are responsible for the academic counseling of the students in their class or clinical group. The faculty who are members of the Promotions Committee counsel their assigned students regarding course selection during the registration period.

A variety of counseling services are available through the Academic Support Services Program of Camden County College (CCC). The Advisement Center is located in the Community Center (extension 4454).
