Answer: Family stress and financial stress.

Explanation:

A stressor is an event/situation which causes a person to feel stressed out.

It is not unusual that students feel stressed out when they enter a college/university. This is one of the major events in a person's life. The stress is often caused by the family, and especially parents, who expect too much from their children. They sometimes want to participate in choosing the major or making other important decisions.

Moreover, students might find this period especially stressful if they support themselves. Sometimes, students must find a job while studying and balance the two, which is extremely exhausting during the examination period. On the other hand, if one has a scholarship, he/she also might feel the pressure to keep his/her grades high so as not to lose it.
