Student Wellness, Counselling & Therapy

The campus has a medical center on its premises for the benefit of its students and personnel. Manipal Hospitals provides medical officers, which include a doctor and nurse. While the doctor is available during working hours, the nurse is on duty until 9 p.m.

The medical center has basic life support and 10 beds for inpatient treatment. There are two wheelchairs available in every block of the university, and in case of any emergency, there is a 24-hour ambulance service available on site and in the hostels.

Beds for inpatient treatment

As the university also believes in the mental welfare of its students and staff, a counselling psychologist is available on campus, and a psychiatrist can be called on request by the in-house doctor if required.

Supporting You Beyond the Classroom

At Presidency University, we recognise that academic success is deeply connected to emotional wellbeing. University life brings growth, opportunity, and new experiences — but it can also bring stress, uncertainty, and personal challenges.

Our Student Counselling Services provide a safe, confidential, and supportive space where students can seek guidance, clarity, and professional assistance.
