It prompted UW president Feridun Hamdullahpur to create an advisory committee on mental health.
The committee sought input from students, staff, faculty and the community on how to assist students in getting the help they need.
The report was slated for completion last fall but was delayed.
Grant said the report is now completed and recommendations will be shared with the university community within two weeks.
Last March, first-year student Chase Christopher Graham, 19, died by suicide at a student residence.
Graham's father, Mark, said his son, a math whiz, was an International Baccalaureate student with top honours in high school, graduating with a 99 per cent average. He was looking forward to studying computer science at UW.
Mark Graham said his son didn't have any known mental health issues, but was daunted about leaving his Kingston home to attend school and "feeling alone in a strange, unwelcoming environment."
Two months before Graham's suicide death, an 18-year-old female UW student took her own life in a student residence.
The two deaths prompted students to organize a vigil on campus and one student garnered 15,000 signatures on a petition asking the university to foster student mental health on campus.
At the University of Guelph, four students died from suicide during the 2016/2017 academic year.
It's the highest number of suicides the school had ever had in a single academic year.
At UW, there have been about 10 deaths by suicide of university students since 2012.
