Supervisors: (1) Dr. Abu Bakar, M.Si (2) Dr. Hetti Zuliani, S.Pd., M.Pd Students in their college life inevitably face various academic and non-academic demands that can cause psychological stress. One important psychological aspect that students need to possess in facing these challenges is self-compassion, namely the ability of individuals to be kind and accepting of themselves when experiencing difficulties or failure. This study aims to determine self-compassion in Guidance and Counseling students at Syiah Kuala University. This study used a quantitative approach with descriptive methods. The study population was students from the classes of 2022, 2023, and 2024, with a sample of 172 students using a Proportional Stratified Random Sampling technique. Data collection was conducted using a self-compassion scale structured based on self-compassion aspects. To examine the self-compassion of guidance and counseling students in their personal and academic lives, the study findings showed that only 6 (3%) guidance and counseling students at Syiah Kuala University had very high self-compassion, 47 (27%) had high self-compassion, 76 (44%) had moderate self-compassion, 32 (19%) had low self-compassion, and 11 (6%) had very low self-compassion.
