Student-tested tips

  • Wellness Peers can help with more than mental health. They know a lot about sexual health, academic stress, and student life.
  • It might be easier to talk with a trained student. They may understand what you’re going through and can give you helpful resources.
  • If you’re a graduate student and would prefer to talk with a graduate peer, check the events section above to visit during Graduate Peer hours.
