This study was conducted among 592 undergraduate students who were selected using a random sampling technique. The findings of this study have successfully proven all ten hypotheses. It was evident that the students enjoyed e-learning’s adoption, which had succeeded in increasing students’ motivation to learn, increasing students’ confidence, and expanding students’ knowledge.
