It is shown that students' situational anxiety level is increased because of university educational system novelty, pro- fessional training principles unfamiliarity and social interaction changes. Most of the first-year students experi- ence emotional stress at the stage of adaptation, regardless of examinees' academic results. Medical university students adaptation is resulted to emotional stability. High academic activity sophomores gain emotional stability throughout the period of adaptation.
