UNIVERSITY AND CAMPUS LIFE CONTEXT 

UHS’s mission flows from the University’s purpose and the mission of the Division of Campus Life. Princeton seeks to prepare students for positions of leadership, lives of service, and the future’s challenges, and to supply the world with learning that speaks to all the fundamental aspects of human experience; Campus Life intends to nurture a humane and collaborative environment for students to develop capacities to thrive as citizens and leaders committed to the well-being of themselves and others.

MISSION  

The mission of University Health Services is to enhance learning and student success by advancing the health and well-being of our diverse University Community. We pursue our mission and support the University’s purpose by using current knowledge of health and human development to guide responsive, high quality clinical, prevention, and consultation services.
