What I learned is that a lot of students do stress in college. In high school the parents and the teachers was more hands on than in college it is all up to the students to get to class on time and turn in the work on time. Social stress is a big factor with college students. Students have to deal with finding a roommate, having time for friends and school work. Some students have to get part time or full time jobs and deal with relationships. New students deal with missing home, staying up late studying and get all their work done on time. Some students that stress a lot may gain weight their first year if they don't know how to deal with all the stress coming their way. Only half of the students who go to college will graduate. Stress will make a lot of students drop out of college.

I choose this article because it focus on students dealing with anxiety and college. Students that start College for the first time or they are going back to college can have difficulties dealing with anxiety. Anticipatory anxiety is a type of anxiety that can occurs leading up to an event. People can get anticipatory anxiety anytime they are waiting for a phone call or just waiting for a date. College students who are leaving home for the first time may struggle with the anxiety that they are going to be away from home. It often happens within the first couple weeks to months of going off to college. A lot of colleges have counsel centers to help students with the issues they are going through.
