'Sharp rise' in student mental illness tests universities Almost five times as many students as 10 years ago have disclosed a mental health condition to their university, say researchers.
In 2015-16, more than 15,000 UK-based first-year students disclosed mental health issues, Institute of Public Policy Research analysis suggests.
The 2006 figure was about 3,000 and the rise risks overwhelming university services, the IPPR says.
