This study aimed to investigate the differences in stress levels and coping styles between college athletes and non-athletes. The sample of the present study comprised 100 college students (50 athletes and 50 nonathletes). Coping style developed by Hamby, Grych, & Banyard, (2013) and perceived stress scale (PSS) developed by Cohen, Karmarck and Mermelstein (1983) were administered to all the samples for the purpose of data collection. The data were statistically analysed by using t-test. The result showed that college athletes did not differ from non-athletes in their stress level. But on coping style the result revealed that athletes are significantly differing from non-athletes.
