Within Maejo University and every other university under the Ministry of University Affairs, the Division of Student Affairs coordinates the entire student program. It provides assistance to students with academic or personal problems either upon request or upon reference by the university staff. It also assists students through counseling in various extra-curricular activities, education and career choices.
 
Maejo University has also its own student committees. There are a number of scientific, literary, social, cultural and athletic societies or clubs which promote student activities and talents. As part of its strong tradition, MJU students actively participate as volunteers in local community development activities.
 
Scholarships
Various scholarships, both from local and international donors, are awarded to poor but deserving students including those who remain in financial need. The Royal Thai Government through Maejo University has provided funds for students to borrow in order to support themselves while studying. The scheme which ensures the relevance (cost/investment) of university education with the hope of minimizing unemployment among university graduates, allows them time to acquire jobs and return back the low-interest loan.
Accommodation
At present, Maejo University has nine buildings that serve as dormitories for students. Due to the limited number of dormitories available for all students, majority of the old students are housed in private lodgings located around the university. MJU tries with priority to provide full accommodation to new students. For more information regarding the availability of accommodation, students should contact the Division of Student Affairs.
Other Services
Maejo University also provides other forms of assistance to its university staff and students including a health service clinic with resident medical officers, sports facilities and gymnasium, a student canteen and other smaller food outlets, a bookstore, a cooperative shop, a 24-hour security system, and others.
