Wellbeing

Empowering you to thrive

With the right support, at the right time.

Wellbeing is about having the right foundations in place – emotionally, socially, and practically – so you can navigate challenges and thrive during your time at Macquarie.

Student Wellbeing offers short-term support for issues that may be affecting your studies. While it's not a crisis service or a provider of long-term mental health care, the team can guide you to the right support when you need it.

Our staff have completed Ally training and are committed to providing inclusive, respectful support to all students. The team also includes staff that speak Mandarin and Cantonese, and free translation services are available on request.

Wellbeing looks different for everyone because we all have different experiences, challenges, and ways of coping. That’s why we offer a range of tools, services, and support options – so you can find what works for you.
