The present study explores the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on undergraduates, mental health distress, and changes in self-estimated grades during the start of the pandemic. A national sample of undergraduate students (N = 197) participated in an online survey during spring 2020. Undergraduate students were recruited for a survey during the initial lockdown in April-May 2020. Higher depressive symptoms, general anxiety, and academic distress were associated with significantly lower self-estimated grades. Perceived grade declines were also correlated with higher financial concerns and risk for COVID-19 complications or infection. These results suggest that COVID-19 and the resulting modifications to education impacted undergraduate achievement and mental health. It is imperative for colleges and universities to provide additional support for students and their mental health. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
