The present study investigated factors affecting Omani college students' academic achievement as well as their academic satisfaction. 178 male and female college students participated in the study. The participants responded to 4 questionnaires which aimed to measure their academic satisfaction, academic motivation, anxiety and their self-efficacy. The students' GPA scores were also obtained as a measure of their academic performance. Regression analysis was performed on the data to investigate the effects of the predictor variables, namely learners' academic motivation, anxiety and self-efficacy on the outcome variables, the students' academic performance and satisfaction. The findings indicated significant associations between the predictor factors and the outcome variables. In particular, the results suggested that students' academic motivation and self-efficacy are significant predictors of their academic satisfaction and achievement. Therefore, the study has important implications for learning and teaching at higher education.
