Abstract

e interview questions were designed to acquire information relating to the type of support the university sta is o ering in order to help those students handle their study and overcome the problems they encounter during the course of their studies. e participants' situation before joining the university was also investigated to verify the impact of support they may have previously received for their study during the university period. e study concluded that the level of support o ered to those students was notably lower than what they were expecting to receive before they joined the university. It also became apparent that participants were very unsatis ed with the academic environment.
