Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic that has entered Indonesia since May 2020 has had a physical and mental health impact on many people, not to mention student groups. Significant changes in the learning system and massive restrictions on social interaction cause new problems for students. This study aims to dig into the problems experienced by students during the Covid-19 pandemic. The Health and Counseling Service Center (PPKK) of the Bhakti Wiyata Kediri Institute of Health Sciences and the KKN Student Group in 2020 conducted a Focus Group Interview (FGI) activity. FGI is implemented by presenting students with Psychologists. FGI is moderated by counselors from PPKK IIK –BW Kediri. FGI results show that students face various problems in various fields amid this Covid-19 pandemic. The four main problems raised by the students are: 1) Lecture problems; 2) Romance problems; 3) Communication problems with parents; 4) Concerns about the future. PPKK-IIK BW Kediri as a civitas academica counseling center has an important role in digging and solving student problems. PPKK can bridge the problem-solving Between parents of students as well as institutions with students.
