Abstract
Currently, As the number of students balancing internships with academic responsibilities increases, the simultaneous demands of these roles often lead to heightened stress levels. This overlap frequently results in Work-Study Conflict (WSC), where the challenges of managing both work and study contribute to significant stress. This study explores the prevalence of WSC and its impact on academic stress among students. Participants included 170 students (both male and female), aged 18-23 years, who were enrolled at University X and engaged in internships requiring about 40 hours per week. The Work-School Conflict Scale was used to measure WSC, and the Perceptions of Academic Stress Scale assessed academic stress. Utilizing a non-experimental correlational design with quantitative methods, Pearson's correlation analysis was applied to test the hypothesis. The results indicated a significant positive relationship between WSC and academic stress, with an r(170) = 0.545 and p = 0.000, demonstrating a notable correlation between the variables.
