Health and Wellness

 

The Tyler School of Art and Architecture is committed to supporting the emotional and physical well-being of our students, as well as their academic and creative growth.

Within Tyler, before students use our state-of-the-art facilities and equipment, they’re trained on safety practices and proper use. As part of Temple University, students have access the comprehensive health and wellness facilities and resources, including:

Student Health Services
Temple Student Health Services provides affordable, accessible and high-quality care to students, staffed by board-certified physicians, nurse practitioners, RNs and medical assistants to meet every healthcare need. Walk-in hours and appointments are available at Temple’s Main Campus and Ambler campuses.

Temple's Tuttleman Counseling Services offers free, confidential support and resources for students’ mental health needs, including individual and group counseling, psychiatric services and specialized programs focusing on substance awareness, resilience, eating and body image concerns, as well as sexual assault counseling.

Wellness Resource Center
The peer-educator programs at Temple’s Wellness Resource Center (WRC) provide education, resources and services so students can make healthier choices and bring balance to their lives. WRC focuses on sexual health, stress, drug and alcohol management and the prevention of interpersonal violence.
