Involvement in academic, extracurricular, and social activities shapes various student outcomes, including self-perceived stress levels and overall well-being. This study examines the relationship between the extent and type of student involvement and its impact on stress and well-being among undergraduate students in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Mississippi State University. In Fall 2024, 310 students from 36 academic majors participated in a survey assessing their perceived stress levels, overall well-being, and the types and intensity of their participation in academic, social, and extracurricular activities. Areas of involvement included athletics, on-campus religious organizations, pre-professional and career-focused clubs, arts, community service, and social groups. Preliminary findings reveal that higher overall involvement is correlated with increased stress, suggesting that over-engagement may negatively impact well-being. However, certain commitments, such as athletics and on-campus religious organizations, are linked to improved mental well-being, likely due to their structured nature and emphasis on community support. In contrast, participation in pre-professional and career-related clubs is most strongly associated with elevated stress and anxiety, reflecting the high-performance pressures inherent in these organizations. This study highlights the importance of balanced engagement in student activities. Universities can better support student well-being by fostering environments that encourage meaningful involvement while preventing a feeling of being overburdened. Practical applications of these findings include developing targeted programs that address the unique stressors of different activities and promoting a healthier balance among academic, extracurricular, and social commitments. This research informs educators, administrators, and student organizations about the nuances of how involvement impacts mental health and personal development. Furthermore, it suggests advising for pre-professionals should include discussions on navigating work-life balance. Helping students develop this balance equips them with vital skills for managing stress and thriving post-graduation.
