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).
