A first-year undergraduate student has to face lots of changes of their resources in the environment to meet the demands. This situation can make undergraduate student feel stress. Stress that happened to an undergraduate student could give effect to engagement and activeness of student and affect student’s achievement. The data was obtained with Student Stress modified questionnaire from [1] with 24 items and Student Engagement modified questionnaire from [2] with 14 items.
