Wellness Resources

Explore the mental health and wellness resources available to all UMGC students.

You pursued higher education because you wanted to find your next success. At UMGC, we understand that balancing your coursework, professional commitments, and personal life can be challenging. As a working adult or servicemember, you know what it takes to succeed—and you also know that sometimes, your obligations can start to feel like obstacles.

Sometimes, you need help. You need a support system, a caring voice who’s trained to listen, or community resources that can make you feel less alone. We understand, and we’re here to assist you. That's why we've curated a comprehensive list of mental health and wellness resources that are available for any UMGC student who might need them.

If you are a UMGC student and need help determining which wellness resources are right for you—or if you have an urgent need for assistance—please contact the UMGC wellness line at 888-371-9355. Please call 911 if it is a life-threatening emergency.
