Student Wellness Program (SWP)

Confidential counseling and behavioral health support promoting student well-being, resilience, and success.

Promoting Student Wellness and Resilience

Stress is a normal part of student life and, when managed effectively, can help strengthen resilience, support personal growth, and build skills for navigating challenges. However, ongoing or overwhelming stress can affect emotional wellbeing, academic performance, relationships, and overall quality of life.

The Rutgers University Behavioral Health Care Student Wellness Program provides confidential, professional support to help students manage stress, navigate personal and academic challenges, and strengthen their overall wellbeing. Our team of highly skilled clinicians helps students develop healthy coping strategies, build resilience, and work toward their personal and academic goals.

Students also have access to a secure online portal where they can conveniently request services and explore resources designed to support their mental health, wellbeing, and success.
