Healthy Minds Study

For more than 10 years, Boston University has participated in the nationally recognized Healthy Minds Study, which conducts population-based surveys to understand mental health trends in higher education.   

We invite you to participate in this confidential survey and contribute to a community dataset that shapes mental health and wellbeing support at BU. The survey takes 20 – 25 minutes to complete and includes questions about access to mental health resources, personal mental health, and experiences supporting others in distress.   

Students, faculty and staff who are selected to participate in the Healthy Minds Study will be emailed more information and a survey link on February 18. The subject line will be “Announcing the Healthy Minds Study at Boston University” and the email will come from healthyminds-BostonU@umich.edu. 

Your input makes a difference! We encourage you to participate in this survey and help inform efforts to support mental health at Boston University.
