While many consider university students to be mature adults who can handle the challenges of higher education, the reality is that a significant number of them are in their late teens or early 20s, and may not be adequately equipped or resilient enough to handle the stress and pressure of university life.
University students are confronted with a plethora of challenges, including academic stress, social isolation, financial instability, and the daunting task of transitioning to adulthood. While most students demonstrate remarkable resilience – which is the ability to adapt to, and cope with, stress and adversity – and are deemed responsible for their own well-being and capable of handling university life, the challenges can take a toll on their mental health and overall well-being.
