Abstract

The global pandemic has proven to be challenging for students in more ways than one. With campuses closed nationwide, executive orders for lockdown, and calls for people to stay home, “Stay Home, Stay Safe,” many students found themselves under mental stress and uncertainty in ways they hadn’t before. The uncertainty was derived by an indeterminate roadmap, the pandemic phobia, and the risk of being infected, financial stress, the stigma of the disease, and the possibility of being called for exams during such a challenging circumstance.
