| Summary: | The research is about work-life balance among college students. Work-life balance has long been focused mainly in the corporate setting, and this study aimed to see if college students experienced work-life balance in their daily lives. The framework included stressors from college of liberal arts and college of engineering and how different types of coping strategies can be used to manage stressors they face.

Using thematic analysis, the results showed themes of balancing studies and social life balancing studies and family time deadlines, tests and homework distance from family and friends and rest period .
