Resources for Students at UM
3 Tips for Supporting Your College Student's Wellbeing
-
Regularly check in with your students to show your support, but give them space to navigate their independence. Ask open-ended questions about how they’re doing and encourage open communication.
-
Remind them of the importance of maintaining a healthy balance between academics, social life, and self-care.
Encourage habits like getting enough sleep, eating well, exercising, and managing stress effectively.
-
Familiarize yourself with the wellbeing resources available on campus and encourage your student to utilize them.
The How Are You Really? Self- Assessment is a great tool for students to be able to check in with themselves.
