Understand and Utilize Resources

As a DSW student, it’s essential to leverage the various resources available to you throughout your academic journey. Familiarize yourself with the UK library services, which provide access to a wealth of academic journals, textbooks, and research databases (more about Library Services in Chapter 3). Additionally, take advantage of other resources, such as the Student Writing Center, which can help you refine your academic writing skills. The Office for Student Success houses the Center for Support and Intervention, the Center for Academic Resources and Enrichment Services, the Disability Resource Center, the Counseling Center, the Office of Equal Opportunity, and many other programs and services that can offer you support for managing stress and maintaining mental well-being. Don’t hesitate to reach out to your academic advisor for guidance. Understanding and utilizing these resources can significantly enhance your learning experience and help you navigate the challenges of your program more effectively.
