 Counseling Services
“We can never truly know ourselves unless we find people who can listen… who can enable us to emerge out of ourselves and discover who we are.” Adjusting to university life, test anxiety, interpersonal relationships, loneliness, sexuality are a few of the many topics that students discuss confidentially with the counselor. Periodic or regular counseling is available for students at regularly scheduled times, or by appointment scheduled through the university nurse. In the event of a crisis, students should contact the Director of Student Affairs. Students can count on strict confidentiality. Services are voluntary and free.
Service Hours: Monday from 8:30 a.m. - 2:30 p.m. - Thursday from 8:30 a.m. - 2:30 p.m.

Athletic Services
Sport is traditionally an important part of NDU campus life. There is every opportunity for those who wish to engage in sport for recreation, for health, or for competition.
An integral part of the Student Affair Office is the Athletic Office which oversees and organizes sport tournaments and activities.
- Professional trainers are available for students who wish to excel in specific sport activities ranging from tennis, volleyball, basketball, and football to aerobics, physical fitness and body-building, from table tennis, chess, and judo to swimming and track and field.
- A schedule of training hours is prepared by the Head Coach of Athletics at the beginning of every semester. In order for students to participate in any athletic activity, they have to register their names at the Athletic Office at the SAO. Sport scholarships are granted to students who represent NDU in athletic tournaments inside and outside Lebanon and bring honor to themselves and to the University.
