Self-efficacy, which is the belief in one's own ability to succeed in particular activities, is a critical component of academic achievement, especially in higher educational settings. This investigation explores how self-efficacy affects learning outcomes and the relationship between academic achievement and self-efficacy among university students. Students' academic records and standardized self-efficacy questionnaires were used in a mixed-methods approach to gather data. The results show that academic performance and self-efficacy is significantly positively correlated, suggesting that students who have higher levels of self-efficacy typically earn higher grades. The study also emphasizes how study habits, motivation, and resilience operate as mediating variables in this relationship. According to the conclusions, in order to encourage student success, institutions should incorporate self-efficacy-enhancing techniques like goal-setting, mentorship programs, and cognitive-behavioral therapies. Longitudinal effects and cultural differences in the development of student self-efficacy in varied populations should be investigated in future studies.
