Abstract
This chapter discusses the social adjustment challenges first-year students face. The search engines such as Google Scholar, Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC), Web of Science, and Psych INFO were used to obtain secondary data. Students joining university today are the most diverse population in terms of their gender, age, socioeconomic status, ethnic composition, family background, native languages, and level of academic preparation. Life transitions, including new experiences and changes, have caused social adjustment challenges in the lives of individuals. Their failure to completely adjust socially may ultimately lead to their failure to take studies seriously and thus perform poorly and or drop out of college all together.
