SUAREZ-MONTES, Nancy  e  DIAZ-SUBIETA, Luz B. Academic stress, desertion, and retention strategies for students in higher education. Rev. salud pública [online]. 2015, vol.17, n.2, pp.300-313. ISSN 0124-0064.  https://doi.org/10.15446/rsap.v17n2.52891.

A systematic review was performed to specify the characteristics of academic stress that affect the mental health of the university population. To do this, recent publications regarding academic stress, student desertion, and retention strategies were examined. Throughout this text, we present the results of the review in terms of the definitions of academic stress, student desertion, and retention strategies. In the same way, we examine the interpretative models with regard to student desertion and approach retention strategies in higher education. We also review retention experiences of several other countries. In terms of Colombia, we present aspects related to student desertion and retention programs from the point of view of the National Ministry of Education and from the experience of some universities with consolidated programs.

Palavras-chave : Stress; student dropout; student health services; universities; mental health; Colombia.
