Abstract COVID-19 is a global concern affecting Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). This pandemic led to a strong reaction among students who experiences anxiety. This cross-sectional study aimed to examine students’ knowledge, attitudes, anxiety, and coping strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic. Results showed that students possessed sufficient knowledge and high-risk perceptions. Non-medical prevention measures were perceived as highly effective. Students were satisfied with the government’s actions to mitigate problems. However, an unwillingness with the online-blended learning approach was observed. Students utilized various ways to cope up with mental health challenges. It is necessary to address students’ mental health during this COVID-19 pandemic among HEIs.
