Students Away at College

Supporting Independence, Wherever College Takes You

Going away to college is a big step toward independence. Whether living on campus, attending school far from home, studying abroad, or traveling internationally, that distance can naturally bring added concern for family.

Well-Check helps students stay connected without constant calls or texts. Scheduled wellness check-ins, missed check-in alerts, medication reminders, trusted contacts, and location awareness provide added reassurance while supporting their independence.

More independence for them. More peace of mind for you.

Get Started With Well-Check

Designed to Support Students Away From Home

Well-Check is built around a simple idea: students should be able to enjoy their independence while still having an easy way to stay connected with the people who care about them.

Scheduled Check-Ins
Students can schedule check-ins around their daily routine, class schedule, travel plans, or other times when family members may want a little extra reassurance.
Missed Check-In AlertsPhone with missed check-in indicator and alert bell.
Missed Check-In Alerts
If a scheduled check-in is missed, Well-Check can automatically notify designated trusted contacts so a parent, family member, or friend knows that a follow-up may be needed.
Medication Reminders
For students who take medications regularly, Well-Check can help them stay on schedule while providing an organized way to keep track of important medication routines.
Trusted Family Connections
Students choose who they want connected to their Well-Check account, including parents, siblings, relatives, roommates, or other trusted individuals.
Alert Trusted Contacts When Needed
When a student needs additional help or wants someone to know that something may be wrong, Well-Check provides tools that make it easier to connect with designated trusted contacts.
Location and Safe-Zone AwarenessA location pin with surrounding safe-zone rings and a check mark.
Location & Safe-Zone Awareness
Location-based features can provide an additional layer of connection, particularly when students are traveling, exploring unfamiliar areas, living in a new city, or studying internationally.

Stay Independent Without Constantly Checking In With Family

Going away to college is about learning, growing, and becoming more independent.

That independence should not mean having to answer repeated calls or messages throughout the day asking:

“Are you okay?”

At the same time, parents should not have to spend the day wondering whether everything is alright simply because they have not heard from their son or daughter.

Well-Check helps bridge that gap.

A scheduled wellness check-in creates a simple routine that lets family members know everything is going as expected while allowing students to continue classes, activities, work, travel, and their social lives without unnecessary interruptions.

An Extra Layer of Reassurance When Home Is Far Away

College can sometimes mean living hundreds—or even thousands—of miles from home.

When students are living on campus, staying in an apartment, traveling with friends, or studying in another country, parents may not have the same ability to know when something is out of the ordinary.

A student who normally checks in at a certain time may simply be busy.

But if that check-in is missed, having a system in place can help make sure someone is aware.

Well-Check creates a scheduled point of contact. If an expected check-in does not happen, designated trusted contacts can be notified so they can determine whether a simple call, text, or other follow-up may be appropriate.

It provides reassurance without taking away the student’s independence.
