Abstract

The present paper makes reference to the factors that lead students to be successful at university. In this essay, seven factors have been considered. They were divided into two categories. The most important factors are in the first group: motivation, financial security, learning environment, methodology and assessment. On the other hand, previous academic background, time management and good counseling have been placed in the second. This classification was made in order to highlight that the first group is more remarkable than the second group. This is because motivation is the engine that makes students go for an objective. So, if you are not motivated to study, you will not succeed because you have no goals to reach, or if you do not have enough money to invest in academic needs, you will not get the books or be able to pay the tuition fee. On the other hand, if you do not manage time well, you are expected to succeed because you are motivated to study or you have a financial situation that helps you afford your studies.
