Abstract
Academic stress is considered to be the vital source of stress among the students. Academic stress is the result of a combination of academic related demands that surpass the adaptive assets accessible to a person. The present study is an attempt to assess the academic Stress among migrated students pursuing technical and conventional Courses. Migration is an important concept that is always associated with the stress and is defined as the movement of people from one place to another especially in search of suitable environment. Of the total sample of 300 students 3×2 factorial design structure involving six potential categories was used to select equal number of students who differed in terms of their three levels of migration status and pursuing two types of courses technical and conventional. The major ANOVA results revealed that students who have migrated from Kashmir to Bhopal reported higher levels of Academic stress as compared to their Counterparts. Furthermore, the results indicate that students who opted for conventional course reported significantly higher levels of academic stress than students who were enrolled in technical courses. Of the seven components of academic stress no significant difference was found on five components of academic stress across students who were pursuing different type of courses. Implications of the study were discussed.
