Wellbeing Services.jpg

Your physical and mental wellbeing plays a big part in your success in the classroom. Each UCOL campus has a specialist staff member who can provide assistance, or refer you to organisations that support physical, mental, and spiritual wellbeing. Our Student Advocate can also provide advice on things like housing and budgeting. 

It’s normal sometimes to feel overwhelmed by what life throws at you, so know that our friendly staff are here to help.
