The number of university students' records call for treatment of depression and anxiety - but schools can not keep up with it

Demand for university students' mental health services is rising and university work is critical to meeting demand (University Mental Health Center, 2015). Many universities offer small or free consulting services to students. Unfortunately, less than half of psychiatric students are seeking support for campus counseling services (Salzar, 2012). According to the annual report of the American University Health Association, only 25.1% of students have been diagnosed or treated for mental health in the last 12 months (American College Health Association, 2016 ). Kim, Saw, and Zane (2015) point out that a relatively small number of students seeking treatment may be due in part to lack of mental health literacy. In fact, their research suggests that college students who are experiencing depression and anxiety are less likely to recognize the symptoms of depression, and that mental health literacy of all participants is low.
