A total sample of 313 students were proportionately selected for the study. Academic Stress Scale adopted from Yumba (2008), Academic Motivation Scale adapted fromVallerand, Pelletier, Blais, Briere, Senecal, and Vallieres, (1992), were used as instruments for data collection andstudents‘ CGPA. Mean andStandard Deviation were used to answer the research questions while Pearson Product Moment Correlation was used to test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. Result of the study revealed that significant relationship exist between academic stress and intrinsic motivation among NCE students (r=-0.763, P=0.001). Academic stress was found to have significant relationship with extrinsic motivation (r=-0.631, P=0.002).Significant relationship was found between academic stress and academic achievement (r=-0.954, P=0.000).Significant relationship exist between intrinsic motivation and academic achievement (r=-0.945, P=0.011).Finally, significant relationship was found between extrinsic motivation and academic achievement among NCE students (r=0.996, P=0.000).
