abstract="PURPOSE To identify the financial stress and associate factors of tertiary level student. <br><br>DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH To identify the financial stress and associate factors, a structured questionnaire was developed to collect data from 571 students of different universities of Bangladesh through Google form. Chi square and Cramer's V were applied to find the associated factors with financial stress of students, whereas ordinal regression was performed to evaluate the influence of the associated factors on financial stress. <br><br>FINDINGS Gender, living status, borrowing loan factors have positive association with financial stress. Tuition fee dues have significant positive association with financial stress. A student who has tuition fee dues feels 1.48 times more stress compared to student who does not have dues. Females were found less likely to be financially stressed (AOR = 1.536) than male students. Students who borrowed loans were more likely to have financial stress than non-borrowed loan groups of students. Practical implications Results indicate that financial stress has a strong impact on participation in different academic and personal activities of a student. Therefore, parents, university administration and student counselor should consider the factor to assess stress of a student. <br><br>ORIGINALITY/VALUE This study identified factors responsible for financial stress of Bangladeshi students of tertiary level.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
