Abstract

This research paper seeks to explore the stressors that are induced upon college students in general, while also comparing the added affects those stressors have on students with type 1 diabetes accompanied by the unique stressors T1D students face in a college setting that others do not. The findings will contribute to ideas and ways which will add to a holistic healthcare plan which includes additional tools and resources allotted to students with T1D that can be deduced and implemented within Universities. In turn, such practices could possibly better aid students with T1D so they can succeed at an equal or greater rate as their counterparts.
