Abstract

This study aimed to describe the perceived stress and coping levels of college students during the pandemic. It utilized the descriptive research design. Two hundred sixty-six college students were randomly selected and participated in the study. Perceived Stress Scale-10 (PSS-10) was used to measure the perceived stress level, while the Brief Resilient Coping Scale (BRCS) was used to measure the coping level. The results of the study revealed that college students have moderate stress. In terms of study variables, they were moderately stressed. As a whole, college students have medium resilient coping. In terms of the study variables, they have medium resilient coping with the exception of the Fourth Year college students having slow resilient coping. The Covid-19 pandemic has given a significant adverse impact on the mental health of college students. The school, through the Guidance Office, should work on programs that would assist college students in dealing with life's daily stressors in this time of the pandemic.
