BACKGROUND

A mobile app has been developed by UP Manila to promote mental wellness and awareness. The app allows UP Manila students to participate in a live chat with qualified guidance counsellors, peers or faculty advisors while remaining anonymous throughout the entire process. This provides a platform for the open discussion of mental health and counselling for mental health problems in a safe, inclusive, non-threatening and non-stigmatising environment.

All undergraduate UP Manila students who are in need of further financial assistance may avail of the Student Financial Assistance (SFA) Program.

The SFA online application will be from 2 August 2018 to 7 August 2018.
