Özet

The present study examined major and least prevalent counseling needs of students who enrolled various undergraduate programs in the Faculty of Educational Sciences at the Ankara University. Also, gender and grade level differences in those needs were investigated. A total of 400 students were surveyed. Findings indicated that while students had higher needs in academic, relational, emotional, and career issues; they reported less needs in self-defeating behaviors, sexual concerns, gambling problem, and excessive credit card spending. Moreover, significant gender and grade differences were found in some needs. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
