Determinant of undergraduates’ academic performance: a case study at a public university in Seremban Campus / Isnewati Ab Malek ... [et al.]

Achieving academic success is important for every student's well-being and ability to contribute meaningfully to the educational institution. College students who succeed academically are more likely to transition successfully into adulthood and achieve success in their professional and financial pursuits. Academic success significantly influences individuals' actions and their relationships with peers and family members. Thus, this research aims to identify the factors influencing the academic success of undergraduate students at UiTM Seremban 3. The analysis revealed that most students came from families with a monthly income averaging RM4850, predominantly from B40 households, accounting for 50.79% of the sample. Additionally, females constitute the predominant gender among the undergraduate population. Furthermore, the application of logistic regression showed a significant association (p-value=0.000) between family income, particularly within the B40 category, and academic achievement, as measured by the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA). In summary, the respondents expressed a satisfactory level of overall satisfaction regarding the determinants of academic performance among undergraduates. The study successfully achieved its objectives, as demonstrated by the model's fitness and the significant factors influencing academic performance.
