Abstract:

The focus of this paper is a consideration of the role that financial stress plays on a student's study outcomes and their study decisions. In particular, the paper explores whether individual circumstances may influence this relationship; for example, whether the combination of work and study or living status (living independently compared with living with parents) contributes to financial stress.
