The study intended to find out whether experienced stress of tertiary students could be statistically predicted by their stream of study (Music/Non-Music) and extents of psychological well-being. Two samples were randomly chosen, from age class 18 and 25 years, one sample comprised of 145 (103 undergraduate; 42 post-graduate) students of music and another sample of 87 (59 undergraduate; 28 post-graduate) students who never studied music. Results showed that stress experienced by tertiary students could be significantly predicted (F=11.62; Sig 0.000) by their stream of study (Music/Non-Music) and extents of psychological well-being. Participating students of disciplines other than Music tended to experience less stress; those with more environmental mastery displayed higher stress. Institutions must arrange counselling sessions for tertiary students of Music and guide all tertiary students towards developing relaxed attitude regarding their milieus for stress-reduction.Keywords
