Abstract:

Due to the overall high number of COVID-19 cases in the Philippines, students are restricted from studying in their homes. Hence, online learning developed consequences that influenced their selfconcept and anxiety. The sudden and unexpected adjustment from face-to-face classes to online learning had significant effects on students' self-concept and educational achievement. Even though many students have received awards for their determination and hard work, their psychological health and self-concept remain their main priorities during the current pandemic. Anxiety is something that students face from time to time, as being lonely can impact their confidence. Moreover, this study investigates the relationship between self- concept and anxiety among college students. The statistical findings revealed a significant relationship between selfconcept and anxiety (r =.148).
