Specifically, the study sought to find out the various challenges facing mothered undergraduate students at Mzumbe University, to determine the university support offered to the mothered undergraduate students and to assess the academic performance of mothered undergraduate students. In terms of approach, the research was a mainly qualitative case study based on the exploratory research design, following Sequential procedures in which the researcher seeks to expand the findings of one method with another method. The open-ended questionnaires and semi structured interviews were used in data collection. Some few quantitative data were also collected. The purposive sampling and snowball techniques were used. The qualitative data were manually analyzed using content analysis methods. The analysis of quantitative data employed SPSS method to get percentages and frequencies. Findings revealed that some mothered undergraduate students were facing some academic and social-psychological challenges. However, these challenges varied among married, unmarried and divorced mothered undergraduate students. No explicit support is offered to MUS since there was no policy which is in favor of their situation. Some more findings also indicated that the university management at different levels implicitly discourages students from practicing parenting roles alongside academic obligations. However, there is a chance for candidate to postpone studies in case she demanded it. There is also guidance and counseling from the students welfare directorate in collaboration with relatives and friends. The study recommends that MUS should create conducive environment for mothered students through gender policy consideration and facility improvement.
