It's normal to have lots of questions when you commence study, and so much change might be overwhelming. We have many different teams dedicated to supporting you with various aspects of your studies and wellbeing, so don't hesitate to reach out and ask a question: we're here to help.

Student Central

Student Central is your starting point for any question you have about your Deakin studies, including enrolment assistance, course advice, financial help and assessment queries. And, if a student adviser can’t help, they’ll point you in the right direction.

Study Support

Deakin's Study Support team provides academic assistance so you can achieve your best in your studies. Use our Study Support guides to learn about different kinds of assessments, as well as study tips and tricks. There's also a range of study assistance available including 1:1 appointments with Study Support staff, Writing and Maths Mentor drop-in sessions, and Peer Assisted Study Sessions (PASS) you can join.

Health and wellbeing

Your academic success depends on you feeling happy and well. At Deakin, we offer a range of health and wellbeing services, including on-campus medical centres, counselling teams, and multi-faith chaplains. It's easy to book an appointment online and most services are free.

Disability support

If you're neurodivergent or living with a physical or mental health condition that impacts your studies or participation in university life, our Disability Resource Centre (DRC) is here to help with resources and adjustments that will allow you to achieve your best. There are also resources available to you if you care for a person with a disability.
