Abstract: This scoping review protocol aims to map university-based mental health services available to active undergraduate students, particularly in Indonesia. Recognizing the increasing prevalence of mental health issues among students due to academic, social, and economic pressures, the review will identify and categorize types of services—such as counseling, group therapy, emergency support, and digital interventions—including technology-based methods like online counseling and chatbots. Using the PCC (Population, Concept, Context) framework, the review will focus on studies from the past ten years indexed in major databases (Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, Cochrane), emphasizing services designed for undergraduates. The protocol details systematic processes for study selection, data extraction, and descriptive synthesis. Findings will highlight existing models, intervention methods, their effectiveness, and research gaps, providing a comprehensive evidence base to help universities and policymakers develop effective, inclusive mental health services for students. Reporting will adhere to PRISMA-ScR guidelines.
