Abstract :University students’ achievement is influenced by a number of factors. Academic self-concept and organizational factors are among the significant ones. This study aims to investigate the effects of academic self-concept and organizational factors on university students’ achievement and to discover whether this varies according to such variables as gender, grade, place of accommodation, educational status of the parents, and preference. The sample of the study consisted of the randomly selected 450 university students attending private and state universities in provincial Ankara. The data were collected using Matovu Academic Self-Concept Scale and Organizational Factors Scale. As a result of the study, it was found that gender, the grade, the place of accommodation, administrative services and practices, and physical setting and equipment positively affected student achievement. Further studies are needed to investigate the combined effects of the variables, including academic self-concept, thought to have an effect on student achievement at university. https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5096-3233Keywords : Academic self concept, university students, organizational factors, academic achievement
