Studying while abroad is an exciting adventure and yet, there may be times when you feel overwhelmed, either emotionally or mentally. That’s why Global360 provides students access to mental health and wellness support services. *Please note that access to these services depends on whether your home institution has chosen to include them in your coverage. Check with your home institution to find out if your plan includes access to this service.
If your school is participating, then you will have access to the keep.meSAFE by guard.me powered by TELUS Health Student Support App (TELUS SSP). With the app, you can connect with a counsellor and discuss any issues you may be experiencing while studying abroad. These may include homesickness, managing stress, feeling lonely, depressed, anxious, or dealing with a culturally sensitive topic. Additionally, you can read articles on mental health, find self-help resources, and even use self-assessment tools. The app also provides multilingual support for travellers 24/7, no matter where you are in the world. If you feel like you need to talk to someone, download the app today and connect with a counsellor who will listen to your concerns and offer practical advice.
