Supporting Your Mind, Body, and Spirit: Wellness at Le Moyne
At Le Moyne, care for the whole person isn’t an idea: it’s a promise.
Whether it’s navigating anxiety, overcoming self-doubt, or rediscovering purpose after a setback, our students are never alone. They’re supported by faculty who listen, coaches who mentor, faith communities that uplift, and peers who show up – on the field, in the classroom, and in life.
At Le Moyne, you're more than your GPA, your sport, or your schedule. We see the whole person: mind, heart, and soul

Thanks to the role of Jesuit values in the Le Moyne education, I learned how important it is to use your education as a means to develop the individual, and I used the experiences around me to help enhance my personal development. I studied abroad, built relationships, made mistakes and learned a ton from them, and I emerged from each of these adventures a little more confident, a lot more conscious of balancing my physical and mental health and, eventually, a completely different person than who I was when I first got here.”
College comes with a lot of learning, both in and out of the classroom, so don’t be afraid to learn about yourself along the way.
Student Snapshots
“Don’t ever let anyone make you feel that your mental health is worth less than a good grade. You are important, you are cherished, and you are loved here.” – Cassidy
“Don’t be afraid to ask for help!! College is a whole different experience that you will need time to adjust to. There are tons of resources available and your friends are also there to help! You can do it! Have a blast and be safe!” – Rylee
“Take time to figure out what you have the capacity for — physically, mentally and emotionally. You will enjoy your college years so much more if you learn how to trust yourself and recognize when you need to take a break and practice self care (whatever that looks like for you).” – Carly
“Let yourself make mistakes. Le Moyne College is a safe place. If you fall down at this wonderful institution, there will be several hands extended to help you to stand up.” – Chris
“It’s totally normal to feel a little awkward at first. The best thing you can do is put yourself out there. Say ‘hi’ to the person sitting next to you in class, go to campus events, and don’t be afraid to ask questions!” – Katya
“One of the biggest mistakes I made as a freshman was waiting too long to ask for help. Whether it’s tutoring, career services, or mental health resources—use them! The sooner you reach out, the better.” – Xavier
