Help is just a Cooee away!
Help and support are always within a Cooee! Reach out to someone as soon as you feel anxious or stressed, but especially if your university experience feels overwhelming.
Your university / campus will have a range of support services available for all students (online/distance and on-campus students). These services are FREE and there is usually a range that you have access to, such as help with developing skills and strategies for assessments (example), finding information or effective studying, social clubs or events, wellness services or extra-curricular activities, to name a few. Remember: student support staff are there to help.
Here are some other kinds of services that your university may offer:
- personal counselling (a confidential space to discuss any concerns you may have about your academic performance, mental health or sense of wellbeing)
- learning/academic skills support (for tips and skills in writing/study/assessments etc)
