MARKETPLACE — According to the Institute of International Education, more than 6,500 Ukrainian and Russian students attended college or grad school in the United States last school year. If being abroad during COVID-19 hasn’t been hard enough, now these students are dealing with war and changing economies at home. For the past several months, Hanna Onyshchenko has needed some extra emotional support at school. She’s a Ph.D. student in economics at the University of Michigan, and her parents live in northern Ukraine, so she’s been seeing a therapist. “I’m doing steps to normalize my mental health, but for example today I got some bad news and I’m back to the spiral,” Onyshchenko said. Her grandfather just died of a stroke, and not only is it unsafe to go home, it’s practically impossible to get there. She’s been putting a lot of energy into helping other students on campus who need not just support socially, but also financially. “So the biggest worry is for undergrad students because many of their parents have lost their income and they’re not able to cover next semester of tuition,” she said. Onyshchenko gets a Ph.D. stipend, but many students don’t get that type of financial support.
