“Being a student can be the most exhilarating time of your life. New friends, new places, new challenges can all add up to a huge buzz. But all those things can also make student life seem a total nightmare.”

The text exposes an area that call our attention, because is focused into stress and the factors that produce it in the group of young university people in first or more advanced year.

(Like maintaining they own place to live or even to take their clothes to the laundry)

In order to solve these problems, the universities have arranged different estates, starting off from advisors who fight with small problems or they orient in problems of desertion of the race, until financial aid, with a system of loans and scholarships or a route of money for the day to day, also they make available different vacancies from works that are thought about students and therefore their schedules are better adapted them. For delicate cases like some type of collapse or suicidal thoughts, they are the same advisors who derive to specialists from the subject, and they offer a constant support to the student, to learn to bear with stress or to change your priorities and to choose a new way in its life.

The text, besides to focus and to try to present different solutions that the universities offer against the stress of their students, it presents different links from related pages of interest, like the subject of the financing, vocational test, and tips to bear the pressure.
