Student Life can be rewarding for students that engage in campus activities.

So you are in your first week of school, and already feeling the pressure of the new label you’ve taken on – STUDENT. It’s hard enough that you now have to wake up earlier than the rest of the world, pack your own lunch, wrestle for your seat on the bus, get to class on time, but you also have to stay attentive for 5+ hours before repeating the routine the next day. Long hours, homework, presentations, exams, financial woes, relationship stressors and sometimes strange cultures to endure. You may feel overwhelmed and unsupported and might even question if this Student Life is for you!

Here’s the good news - You are not alone! Most students experience similar emotions when change happens like the start of a new school year, transitioning from course to course or learning from different instructors.

Good institutions, like Eton College, have well-developed support infrastructure incorporated into the curriculum, with time and activities for the physical, emotional and mental wellness of students. These schools understand that school life without play, can be counter-productive.
