About the Student Wellness Centre

Laurier's Student Wellness Centres work to promote health and wellness on both the Waterloo and Brantford campuses by:

  • Creating a safe, welcoming, non-judgmental environment for all students;
  • Providing confidential, comprehensive, and collaborative physical, emotional, and mental health services that support our students needs and by facilitating referrals to ensure optimal care;
  • Working with students to prepare and empower them to be successful in their health and wellness journeys during the studies at Laurier and after.

Important Information

Please note that masks are mandatory in the Student Wellness Centre.  We appreciate your assistance in making this a safe place for everyone.

Please use the Illness Self-Declaration Form if you require a doctors note or documentation of illness for academic reasons.
