Abstract
The current scenario revealed that many universities, both public and private,
are taking various initiatives in improving the quality of academic programs
offered. This is because, excellence in academic achievement is one of the
determining factors for the graduate employability. However, psychological
factors such as self -concept are still under -emphasized as an important aspect
in determining academic achievement. Therefore, this study aims to look at the
relationship between self -concept and academic achievement of students in
Institutions of higher learning. The study uses a survey method in which
subjects were selected through simple random sampling involving 160 students
(n = 160). Descriptive statistical analysis was used to describe the level of
academic achievement and the level of self -concept of the subject in the form
of percentage as well as frequency. Meanwhile, regression analysis was used
to see the influence of self-concept factors on academic achievement. The
findings of the study can be summarized as follows; (i) the majority of subjects
had academic achievement at the honors level (51.9%) (ii) the majority of
subjects had a moderate level of self -concept (61.3%); and (iii) the self -
concept factor which contribute to the highest percentage of changes in
academic achievement is the construct of personal self -concept (17.1 percent).
In conclusion, this study successfully proves that self-concept has a significant
relationship with students' academic achievement and there are self-concept
factors that contribute to academic achievement. Implications and
recommendations for future studies are also discussed in this study
