Abstract	This study aimed to identify, analyze and determine the level of self-efficacy and self-esteem of B.S. Information Technology (BSIT) students of a higher learning institution in Nueva Ecija, Philippines. It was conducted during the 1st Semester of the academic year 2019-2020. This research utilized descriptive approach to describe the level of self-esteem and self-efficacy of the students and to draw valuable insights that may contribute to the improvement of the teaching and learning practices of the faculty members in the college. The researchers used random sampling to ensure that all year levels are well represented in the study. There were 285 students who voluntarily responded after the researchers explained to them the purpose of this study. Responses were tallied, summarized and interpreted. Results show that the level of self-esteem and self-efficacy of the students were moderate/medium (WM=2.03, WM=2.08). This indicates that depending on the given situation or context, students may increase or decrease the level of their self-esteem and self efficacy. This study suggest that students may be exposed to more activities that may help them improve their self-esteem and self efficacy to greatly contribute to their holistic development Future studies may be conducted to a larger number of respondents and to understand the link between self-efficacy and self-esteem on their academic performance, drop-out rates, and retention rates.
