Supporting the Whole Student

Students come to college with complex needs. Supporting the overall wellness of our students requires investments in disability support, counseling services, and our health center. Supporting our students' identities through our Office of Diversity and Inclusion and providing them entertainment opportunities through the Office of Student Engagement ensures that their McDaniel experience is well-rounded and meeting all their needs.

Meeting Basic Needs Home on the Hill

While scholarships and aid help worthy students attend McDaniel, a lack of basic needs can inhibit them from living and learning comfortably. Home on the Hill supports McDaniel students through perishable food items, toiletries, clothing and other necessities, allowing students to focus on putting their studies first.

The SASS Office works with each student on a case-by-case basis to determine and implement appropriate accommodations based on individual needs.
