Between figuring out what you want to major in, navigating financial aid, and potentially living alone for the first time in your life, college brings plenty of challenges. And for Muslim students on campus, there are additional struggles. From experiencing (gendered and racialized) Islamophobia in the classroom, to struggling to find halal options, to exploring and setting boundaries around your faith, college can be really stressful (not the mention COVID).
