Abstract :
The study aimed to ascertain the influence of
academic stress on mental health among college students
of the San Agustin Institute of Technology amidst COVID19 Pandemic. The study surveyed two hundred sixty-four
(264) respondents using an adapted standardized survey
questionnaire. The qualified respondents were selected
using simple random techniques. The data collected were
analyzed using mean, Pearson r moment correlation, and
simple regression techniques. The study reveals that most
of the students experienced moderate to extreme stress
(94.39% or 249 out of 264) and majority had moderate to
high levels of mental health problems (75.36 or 199 out of
264) during the COVID-19 pandemic. Likewise, the results
show that academic stress is significantly correlated with
mental health using correlation analysis. Alternatively,
using regression analysis, the result indicates that
academic stress posited a significant influence on mental
health. It suggests that the students stress on their
academic engagement affects their mental health
condition, especially amidst COVID-19 pandemic.
