whether something is true or right.

LITRATURE REVIEW
Challenges faced by students at university level and strategies to overcome
There are many problems and the challenges faced by the students when they enter the
university level. Some of the factors like their responsibility, age and other things also affect on
their life. It is important for the students to have a proper strategy, so they can face this
challenges and prove themselves a strong students
According to the Author (Bovill and et.al., 2016) when a student enters the university
they face the most common challenges which is change in the environment. In the school they
have different friends and they have to be in discipline but the college life is totally different
from the school life. This can put the pressure on the students, and they can face the challenges
to interact with the others because they can feel everything new. They will see the news faces
and students can miss the time when he was in the school because they study in the school for
the long time, and they get addicted with their friends and every activity they do in their class.
This can affect on their mind, and they will not able to study properly so it is important for the
students to face this situation they have to make new friend, or they can find someone who are
facing same problem. This strategy can help them to face this challenges.
As per the view of (Torres., 2019) It is indeed possible to get a place in dorms or a hostel,
but the truth is that finding perfect accommodation is an uphill task. You are needed to consider
a variety of factors like rent rates, facilities, roommates and distance, among many others. As a
student, it is prudent to get ready to face accommodation problems. However, always be aware

that you need to have arranged for a place to stay as you leave home as this is the best option to
avoid massive housing issues. This strategy will help the student to face this challenges, and
they can be conferrable in the housing and make the new friends in their hostel and make the
new friends.
According to the (Alex., 2017) another challenge students face is time management,
from living alone and trying to balance their life between the chores and the study among the
activities, they can have ti do many things which can affect their lives like they do not only
have to study, but they also have to manage their study for the other activities like they are
living in the Hotels, so they have to make their food, and they have to clean their clothes and
many other things so This is challenging for the students to manage this all things on the
university level. This affect on their study and they are not able to study properly for their
course.
As per the view of (Wolf and Phung., 2019)Poor self-care, inadequate sleep, and
heightened stress are among the factors that can lead to most of the health problems in university
life for the students and it can be Challenging for them to do their studies in this situations. In
addition to these, living close to large numbers of people can also pose health risks by increasing
the likelihood of students acquiring illnesses.
Analysis and discussion of all question
As per the above Literature review have been found that students are facing the different
different challenges which is affecting their studies and This challenges also affecting their
other activities every day. There are some strategies which can help them to over come from
the challenges faced by the students, so they can sole their problems and achieve their goals I
their university life.
Finding new set of friends
In the first challenges they face is different people because university life is totally
different from the school life so students have to make new friends and in this situation
effective communication can help them to overcome from this challenges, and they can make
the set of new friend. This can be difficult, but they can get some of the people who are facing
the same problems, and they can create good friendship.
Housing

Another challenge was about housing like how they will live and how they will find
the hostel where they can live so there are some strategies to face this challenges is that they
have to contact with their friends at the university level who are living in the hostel or if they
are living on rent. They can talk if they can share the rend or the students can get the room.
This will helps students to get the house where they can live, and they can study properly, and
they should also look that the home should be nearby their university, so they can save money
for their traveling.
Time management
To face this problem students have to make the proper time table for the students and the
other this which will help them to do every activity on the time. Time management is important
for the students because they live alone when they enter in university life, and they have
learned everything themselves (Bampili, Zachariades and Sakonidis., 2019). With the help of
proper time management sedulous they can do every activity on the times like they can give
proper time for their students, and they can also go with the friends side and mangy this.
Students have to make the proper time table in which every activities from the morning to till
they will sleep will help to manage the activities they will do in the day this will make their
habit to do every work on the times and this one of the best skills for the profession development
for the students to manage their times.
Health / Sickness conditions
This is also the challenges which is faced by the students because they doe not take the
proper sleep, started using the drugs and other things which are their health/. Student should
be far from this because it is affecting their health. They can do this with the help of
mediation (Nasir, And et.al., 2017). This will help them to control their mind, and they can use
their kind clammily, and they can also take the proper rest, so they can do the proper studies
and for the better studies it is important for the student to take proper sleep, and they can also
be feet and healthy.
Recommendation
As per the the above discussion and the literature review I would like to advice to the
students that there are many challenges which can be faced by them when they enter the new
life which is university life, and they meet the new friends and everything will be new, but they
have to face those challenges, so they can be self-confident and this will also help them for the

professional development in their life. The challenges in our life comes when we enter in
University, so they should take those challenges as a lesion because they can learn that how to
compromise with the difficulties in our life and this make them face the challenges (Palmer,
And et.al., 2019). This learning and facing challenges will make their studies more better and
when they will leave their college life and enter the another step of the life which is searching
for the job and other things, the learning from the university life will help them achieve their
life goals, and they can develop themselves as a profession, and they can be successful in their
life.
