Wellbeing & Support
At MIT, we strive to create an environment where students feel supported, a sense of belonging, and the ability to prioritize their well-being by offering direct support, guidance, training, education, and programming around well-being and belonging.
Direct Support Teams
When a student reaches out for help, they are connected to a network of support which provides individualized comprehensive care. No matter where they are on their journey, our direct support teams are there to guide them and offer world class support.
Student Support Services (S3)
S3 is there to help you navigate a wide variety of issues including personal and academic concerns.
Disability and Access Services (DAS)
DAS ensures that both undergraduate and graduate students have equal access and opportunities through accommodations, support services, and advocacy.

CARE provides support to undergraduate and graduate students facing significant personal challenges, allowing them to focus on their wellbeing and academics.
Wellbeing and Belonging Teams
Our wellbeing and belonging teams provide resources, trainings, programming, passive education, and leadership opportunities to students to foster a culture of well-being at MIT. They also work to ensure physical spaces on campus, like the Wellbeing Lab, the Rainbow Lounge, the Cheney Room, and SPXCE, embody well-being and community.
