ABSTRACT: This study attempted to assess level of adjustment of selected college freshmen of Asia Pacific College as basis for designing an intervention program. Three hundred respondents were included in the research coming from the different schools within the college: School of MultiMedia Arts (SoMa), School of Engineering (SoE), School of Accountancy and Business (SoAB) and School of Computer Science and Information Technology (SoSCIT). Respondents were classified according to their type of high school where they finished their secondary education, their course and the type of scholarship granted to them. To determine level of adjustment of the freshmen, the Student Adaptation to College Questionnaire (SACQ) was administered which measures four areas: Academic Adjustment, Personal-Emotional Adjustment, Social Adjustment and Institutional Attachment. The gathered data were evaluated to know if significant difference exists between the four adjustment areas and the freshmen profile. Based on the findings, majority of the student-respondents preferred Multi-media, Business and Accountancy, and Computer Science and Information Technology than Engineering Courses. In terms of their adjustment level, findings revealed that the social and institutional attachment areas are within high level of adjustment while in the area of academic and personal-emotional adjustment falls within moderate level. When students are grouped according to type of high school, there is a significant difference between the academic adjustment and social adjustment while no difference was seen in areas of personal-emotional and institutional attachment. When grouped according to type of scholarship, no differences were seen in the academic adjustment. Lastly, when students are grouped according to courses, there is a significant difference between the academic adjustment, personal-emotional adjustment and institutional attachment and the courses whereas, social adjustment and courses showed no difference. The findings explain that regardless of the scholarship type, high school type and the courses they enrolled in, freshmen must be provided with programs that would facilitate adjustment in college. It is recommended that the intervention program designed for the freshmen must be implemented for them to experience a transition that would help them cope up with the various areas of adjustment in college and ultimately, towards a meaningful experience that would help them achieve their purpose.
