What is Academic Stress? Academic wellness encompasses managing stress, building your resilience and avoiding burnout. It is a common experience for all students. You may not always be able to avoid it, but you can make choices that can help you stay resilient and positive. The way stress impacts you and the skills you possess to manage it can greatly influence your success. We hope to help you understand stress as well as provide resources to identify, understand, and manage it.

What about Resilience? Resilience is the ability to adjust to circumstances and keep going in the face of adversity, whether it’s a minor hassle or a major life event. Resilience also helps us take on challenges, form stronger relationships, and embrace new experiences. Resilience is not static, it can grow through learning, reflecting, and building strong internal and external support systems. |
