The College Drinker's Check-up (CDCU) is a computer-based brief motivational intervention for heavy drinking college students. It takes a student about 45 minutes to go through it. This program is designed to improve the harmful drinking habits of college students and can be used as a form of punishment through the institution. The program is accessed remotely through the internet and can be customized for any school. COLLEGE DRINKER’S CHECK-UP
