A partir de março de 2020, a Organização Mundial da Saúde declarou pandemia da COVID-19, com elevada gravidade clínica, a síndrome respiratória aguda grave Sars-CoV-2, cuja prevenção envolve medidas de distanciamento social. Diante dessas exigências, as atividades socioeducativas tiveram que se adaptar, os alunos inseridos nesse processo apresentaram novas preocupações. Os objetivos do estudo foram analisar a literatura científica mais atual sobre os impactos da pandemia na saúde mental dos estudantes. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa de literatura bibliográfica realizada nas bases de dados PubMed, utilizando os descritores controlados com operador boleano "mental health" and "pandemic"; "mental health" and "COVID-19"; "medical students" and "pandemic"; "medical students" and "COVID-19"; "mental disorders" and "pandemic"; "mental disorders" and "COVID-19"; "depression" and "pandemic"; "depression" and "COVID-19"; "education" and "pandemic"; "education" and "COVID-19"; "education" and "mental health"; "students" and "stress". Paralelamente, realizou-se uma segunda revisão com palavras-chaves isoladas. Os termos utilizados foram: COVID-19; pandemic; mental health; mental disorder; depression; anxiety; stress; education; online; medical students; students; mental disorder; social isolation; online education; e-learning. Foram incluídos artigos de estudos transversais ou longitudinais, publicados entre 2020 e 2021 e que avaliassem a saúde mental de estudantes universitários durante a pandemia de COVID-19. Assim, foram selecionados oito artigos, para avaliação, análise crítica e descritiva. Quanto aos resultados, a pandemia tonou-se ambiente ideal para aumentar a incidência de sintomas relacionados a ansiedade, depressão e estresse. No contexto da educação, foram identificadas as taxas de prejuízo educacional e psicossocial, inerentes à necessidade impostas pela pandemia, com incertezas atribuídas à mudança do processo ensino e aprendizado. Diante desse conjunto de informações, nota-se que a pandemia contribui como mais um fator envolvido na formação acadêmica impactando diretamente na saúde mental dos estudantes, contribuindo para o sofrimento psíquico.
