Demand of college overwhelming?
College students typically encounter a great
deal of stress during their college years (i.e.,
academic, social, family, work, financial).
Sometimes the demands of college life can
become overwhelming and unmanageable.
Students may feel alone, isolated, helpless,
and even hopeless. These feeling can easily
disrupt academic performance and interfere
with their ability to be successful in their
classes.
