Mind
Mental health is just as important as physical well-being for Mustangs. ÃÛÌÒ½´has a number of mental health apps and self-help resources available to students to help you cope with the stresses of academic life.
Caring for the whole Mustang
The beginning of a new season is a great time to focus on yourself. At SMU, we prioritize your mental, physical and spiritual well-being. Take advantage of these resources to find what works best for you.
Body
Moving your body can be a great way to manage stress. Plus, finding new activities can be a great way to meet people from all corners of campus.

Getting outside
Whether you’re at the Starbucks in Fondren Library or camping out with a good book under a tree on the Boulevard, use the interactive map to find your next favorite spot, or venture off campus for some fresh air on Katy Trail. Sometimes, you’ll even catch support animals hanging around campus during finals week or the beloved pets of our Faculty in Residence.
