At UW Law, supporting a student's success means supporting a healthy mind, body, and spirit. The resources listed here address multiple aspects of student wellness: mental health and safety, personal life, financial and academic.
Mental Health & Safety
Mental wellness is achieved after your basic needs are met and when you can focus your attention, express your thoughts, cope with difficult emotions, and have a positive mindset.
Personal Wellness
We want our students to succeed beyond the classroom. Personal wellness encompasses your physical health, social life, and spiritual practices.
Financial Wellness
Finances can be a huge stressor that affects your own personal wellness. Learn tips on taking control of your financial future.
