Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this pilot project was to establish an interprofessional collaborative process for college students treated with prescribed exercise to manage depression.

Participants who were prescribed exercise as a treatment for depression were referred to the campus wellness coaching program. Baseline and follow-up data included Patient Health Questionnaire-9 scores and qualitative reports.

Practice Implication: Continued use of this established process might help to reduce the burden of college depression.
