Keep.meSAFE

keep.meSAFE’s innovative Student Support Program (SSP) provides students with free 24/7 access to mental health support. This includes in-person counselling appointments with hundreds of licensed counsellors in Montreal and access to mental health care in over 60 languages with diverse counsellors who understand who understand your experience and the unique needs of your community (including LGBTQ2+, BIPOC, immigrant communities, international students, individuals with disabilities, veterans, and more).

Maple Virtual Care

Are you an international student looking to see a healthcare professional? Maple Virtual Care is available to students who have opted-in to McGill's international health insurance (IHI). This allows you to receive 24/7 on-demand access to doctors by secure text or video for advice, diagnosis and prescriptions.

McGill Office of Religious and Spiritual Life

MORSL offers support to students of any religious identity or no particular religious identity who wish to find meaning beyond academics and to form healthy life habits that invite spiritual well-being, inner peace, and that equip them to live harmoniously in a pluralistic society.
