Many college students have lost their on-campus jobs due to the evacuation, and the pending issue of room and board fees can aggravate their financial hardship and mental health outcomes. They also have concerns and fears of infection and transmission of COVID-19 to their family members when they return home. Given that youth can be asymptomatic carriers (Pan et al., 2020), students may be worried about putting their elder family members at increased risk for infection with severe complications from COVID-19. The fact that the COVID-19 pandemic affects collegiate mental health only underscores the urgent need to understand these challenges and concerns in order to inform the development of courses of action and public health messaging that will support college students during this difficult time.
