description	Adult learners are enrolling in part time programmer in higher learning institutions to obtain higher academic qualification in order to improve their career as employers now days seeks skillful and highly academic qualified workers in their hiring. Education for part time adult learners come with an added responsibility which demands time and energy of adult learners whom already juggling with work, family, financial issues and others matters in life. Adult learners who are not able to cope will find it stressful. This research was to study the five factors of stress such as student life demand, family life demand, work life demand, financial constraint and technology literacy among part time adult learners and the relationship with stress among part time adult learners in Perak. 120 questionnaires were distributed to part time adult learners in three universities across Perak and 108 questionnaires were collected and 100 valid respondents were analyzed. The research confirmed that there is a significant relationship between student life demand (examinations, assignments, lectures) and stress among part time adult learners. The research also confirmed that there is a significant relationship between financial constraints (funding for tuition fees) and stress among part time adult learners. The research finding indicates that the primary sources of stress are managing student life demand and financial constraint. Education institutions have and will continue to experience increased mature student enrollment. This research provides specific information on the student experience with the institution, the student life itself and balancing of work, family and study.
