Abstract This study aims to compare the mental health and social support of non-first-time; college students in China and the United States. Through surveys collected from 371 Chinese; students who upgraded from junior college to university in China and 40 transfer students in; the United States, I found a significant negative correlation between social support and; mental health scores, indicating that students with less social support are more likely to; experience mental health issues. Additionally, we observed that the mental health status and; social support of Chinese students are significantly higher than that of American transfer; students. These findings underscore the importance of social support for the mental health of; students who upgrade from junior college to university and suggest relevant intervention; measures and educational recommendations.
