The counselling needs of 443 (195 f; 248 m) engineering students were assessed in this study along with a measure of academic performance and social-economic status (SES). Counselling needs are the needs/problems of the students for which they want to seek counselling in order to help cope with those problems. The Student Counselling Needs Questionnaire and Kuppuswamy’s scale were administered on the sample to collect primary data. Secondary data, the academic performance was collected from the college records. The results showed significant differences between type of problem area, gender, SES and academic performance. The high levels of unmet counselling needs in the engineering students necessitate adoption of suitable counselling services in the colleges.
