In addition, academic stress is defined as a systemic process of an adaptive and essentially psychological nature. Objective. To determine the relationship of the factors associated with the perception of stress with the academic cycle in students enrolled in the academic semester 2020-I, at the Professional School of Dentistry of the Universidad Nacional del Altiplano, Peru. Materials and methods. A non-experimental relational and cross-sectional design was considered, with a sample of 144 students, selected by non-probabilistic sampling, where the questionnaire "Dental Environment Stress Questionnaire" was applied. Results. In the dimension of academic load, lack of time between seminars and laboratories or clinics, lack of time to perform assigned tasks, attendance and success in dental subjects, fear of failing a course or a semester and lack of self-evaluation and knowledge of own competences have a moderate positive correlation with the academic cycle, the delay in receiving grades with the academic cycle has a very high positive correlation. In the dimension of preclinical and clinical practices, the correlation of the factors explaining this dimension with the academic cycle is positive and low; in the dimension of patient treatment, the correlation between its factors with the academic cycle is positive and very low. Conclusions. In the dimension of professional school and administration, the correlation of the factors considered with the academic cycle is positive and very low, and in the dimension of interpersonal relations, the correlation of competence for qualifications and the environment created by teachers with the academic cycle is positive and low.
