Abstract :

 

Education is the process of facilitating learning or acquisition of knowledge, skills, values, beliefs and habits. Adjustment is a behavioral process of balancing conflicting needs. The present study compared college adjustment processes between first and final year female students enrolled in different undergraduate courses offered by colleges affiliated with University of Madras in Chennai city.  Every individual assessed with Adjustment Inventory for College Students (Sinha and Singh, 1995). Data were analyzed by using t–test. Results indicated that the first year undergraduate students were difficulty in adjusting emotionally and socially to the changing demands of the environment and faced more academic difficulty as compared to final year students. The final year students were more socially adjusted and more integrated into the social faic of the college. Based on the research implication for further counseling interventions are discussed.
