Details: I’d like to submit a request for public records related to mental health counseling at UConn.

Specifically, I would like to request records containing the following data:

- The annual number of on-campus mental health appointments attended by students for each year since 2014 (including year-to-date 2019)
- The number of unique students who received mental health services from the school for each year since 2014 (including year-to-date 2019)
- The campus counseling center’s annual budget for each year since 2014
- The number of licensed mental health counselors employed at the school’s counseling center for each year since 2014
- The average wait time for a non-crisis mental health counseling appointment in 2018
- The average wait time for a crisis counseling appointment in 2018
- The most common concern or concerns reported by students who received mental health services from the school in 2018

As background, I’m requesting these records from the largest public university in every state as part of a project examining the increase in demand for campus mental health services.
