Universities need "immediate improvements" so students get the mental health care they need, according to a new survey.
Out of 7,200 students surveyed by charity Humen, nearly half felt mental health difficulties negatively impacted their university experience.
The research also revealed only 4% of staff received "adequate training".
Support should be given "just as much value" as much as academic results, says River Hawkins, founder of Humen.
The research by the mental health charity, across 80 universities, found 57% of students have used mental health services provided by their university, with 47% saying difficulties had a negative impact on their experience.
