Objective: During COVID-19, many colleges offered mental health services to their students through telehealth or through a combination of telehealth and in-person (hereby hybrid) services. This study examines the experiences and perceptions among students who received telehealth, hybrid, or in-person services. Participants: Data was collected from the Healthy Minds Survey, a national survey of college students, during Fall 2020 and Spring/Winter 2021 (n = 13,976). Methods: Chi-square and Kruskal-Wallis H tests were conducted to examine how students who received campus mental health services through different modes of delivery differed in reported barriers to care, satisfaction with care, and perceived support. Results: Students receiving in-person services differed from students receiving telehealth or hybrid services on multiple metrics. For example, they were less likely to be satisfied with the quality of therapists or the ability to schedule appointments without long delays. However, effect sizes were small. Conclusion: There may be unique strengths to telehealth and hybrid services.
