This scoping review provides a synthesis of research which maps the literature on the topic of COVID-19 related impact on Undergraduate Student Mental Health and Baccalaureate Success. The purpose of this review was to identify existing literature pertaining to the psychological repercussions of COVID-19 on the undergraduate population, describe the range of successful interventions used to reduce stress and demand on the U.S. undergraduate population during a pandemic, and identify implications for future research. Due to the novelty of coronavirus and limited research on the given topic, this review provides a framework of available research by identifying types of available research, identifying how research is conducted on the topic, identifying and analyzing knowledge gaps, and clarifies key concepts in literature.

Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) is a chronic health condition in which there is a lack of blood flow to the heart. This can cause dizziness, fatigue, and an increased heart rate (US Department of Health and Human Services, 2017). These symptoms are only a few of many that may present in patients with POTS, and each patient’s symptoms present with varying intensity. Additionally, there is no set criteria for diagnosing POTS (Olshansky, et al., 2020). Because of this, it is extremely difficult to diagnose patients with POTS and the process can take years. Patients with POTS often seek insight and care from multiple providers which often leads to confusion or no answers. Many times, patients with POTS are diagnosed via a series of procedures that must be done as they face a lifetime with the disease. The lived experiences of patients with POTS are not widely known. It is thus essential to explore this gap in the literature in order to better understand how this disease affects all aspects of a person’s life and inform future research into POTS and develop solutions. This study aims to answer the following research questions: What is the experience of someone with POTS from the onset of symptoms to diagnosis and treatment? What are the attitudes of people going through being diagnosed with POTS?
