At Curtin, our campus is not just a place where we teach new knowledge and skills, it’s also a supportive and empowering place for our students.
Mentoring and peer support
It’s totally natural to feel anxious about the transition to uni, but at Curtin we have mentoring and peer programs that will help you. Our UniPASS program offers sessions to help you gain study skills. We also have ‘New to Curtin Mentors’ who share their own experience of being new to campus and can give you some useful tips – they’ll help make your entry into uni life a lot easier than you think it will be.
Counselling and wellbeing services
Your wellbeing is essential to your success at uni, and at Curtin we have free student health services providing the support you might need from time-to-time. From confidential counselling to psychological and medical services, our health professionals are here to help with any medical, personal and study-related issues that could be impacting your health or wellbeing.
We also have Student Assist and Curtin Ally programs that offer guidance and resources, and a safe space for students from all walks of life.
Disability support
We want to make sure that every Curtin student has equal opportunity to succeed in their studies. If you have a disability, our AccessAbility advisors are here for you. They’ll work with you to create a Curtin Access Plan, ensuring you get the specific support you need. They’ll help you access specialised learning and study assistance, tailored library services, and on-campus facilities and mobility assistance.
Financial support
Financial challenges can be a major stress for many uni students. At Curtin, we offer scholarships and financial assistance programs designed to reduce the financial burden of being a student – so that you can dedicate your time and energy to your studies and the extracurricular activities that support your wellbeing.
Our university community
