A new virus called COVID-19, began to spread in Wuhan (China) since the end of 2019, and is now found all over the world. This virus, in addition to increasing the risk of death from infection, also increases psychological pressure on humanity. Samples were taken from college students from the different UANL faculties, using cluster sampling, which responded to a battery of questionnaires that included the 7-ítem Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7) and those asking about the basic information of participants. We received 1,658 responses. 1,658 responses were received. The results indicated that 0.6% of the respondents experienced severe anxiety, 1.8% moderate anxiety, and 12.1% mild anxiety. Likewise, the factors Living in Urban Areas (OR = 0.818, 95% CI = 0.702 - 0.914), Stability of Family Income (OR = 0.723, 95% CI = 0.633 - 0.807) and Living with Parents (OR = 0.752, 95 CI % = 0.585 - 0.952) were protective against anxiety. Practicing a team sport was a risk factor for anxiety. According to the study, it is suggested that sports students' mental health be monitored during the contingency caused by the COVID-19 epidemic.
