Abstract
The purpose of the study is to investigate the impact of resilience and social support on adjustment to college life of freshman and sophomore year college students. 166 college students from two universities in J city were instructed to answer structured questionnaires, and the data was analyzed by T-test, ANOVA, Pearson Correlation, and Regression analysis using SPSS 24.0 software. The results show that resilience and social support have statistically significant positive correlation to adjustment to college life. Variables that affect adjustment to college life are college major satisfaction, grades in the preceding semester, drinking, smoking, positivity(a sub-variate of resilience), and material support(a sub-variate of social support) with explanatory power of 39.6%. The results of this study suggest the need to develop programs that consider resilience, social support, and college major satisfaction in order to support freshmen and sophomores with their adjustment to college life.
