Abstract: The closure of schools, universities and educational institutions across Saudi Arabia, and maintaining social distancing as a preventive and precautionary measure against COVID-19, have all changed the mode of teaching from a conventional standard system to a virtual and online framework. Such a quick and sudden shift in the educational system might cause intense stress on students. This content research analysis aims to identify the academic stressors by analysing the worries and fears that students at the College of Education (King Saud University) are experiencing during the time of COVID- 19. The results show that the issue with the highest percentage of stress among students is their uncertainty over the end of semester exams and assessments.
