Resource Navigators

Student success and happiness at U-M often has to do with being able to find what you need--people, places, and spaces within the university that make it feel like "hoMe." As a member of the Well-Being Collective, the Resource Navigator program is here to help you find what you're seeking, without a two-hour Google search or an exhausting email chain between multiple offices. What do you do? Two things: (1) make an appointment and (2) complete a quick Intake Form at the link.

Talk to us. We can help.

You'll leave your appointment with a personalized pathway for questions, like...

    •    What student orgs are available to me?
    •    How do I get involved on campus?
    •    How do I find internship and research opportunities?
    •    How do I get academic help?
    •    How do I manage my time?
    •    What can I do to maintain wellness?

Choose what works best for you! In-person or virtual. Seven days a week. 
Peer-to-peer appointments are available in half-hour increments. Select a day and time that’s convenient for you; they're either in-person at the League or Pierpont, or virtual, so choose whatever works best! Appointments are posted on Friday at noon for the upcoming week. Then, complete the registration intake form which allows your Navigator to create a personalized plan tailored to your questions.

Where do I go if I chose an in-person appointment?
In-person appointments are currently available on Central Campus at the League and on North Campus at Pierpont Commons, both on the main floor by the Information Desks. 

Accessibility.
If you use a wheelchair, please note that on your intake form. There are accessible spaces in each building.

Resource Navigators: Why Should You Get Connected?

Five students of various ethnicities take a selfie (woman's arm reaches up; group is standing on a blonde wooden floor).

With over 40,000 students and with 19 schools/colleges, Michigan can feel enormous. It’s no surprise that, with these numbers, a lot of students come into Michigan without any connections on campus. Resource Navigators help connect students, both undergraduate and graduate, by connecting them to the places, spaces, and (most importantly) people they need to make the most of their U-M experience.
