Background: This mixed methods study explores the self-efficacy of adult online students in undergraduate programs and their academic advising preferences. According to The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) adult student enrollment has increased 25% from 2007 to 2019 enrolled at colleges and universities (p. 26). Self-Efficacy is a person's belief in their ability to influence the events in their lives. Research shows that people who have higher self-efficacy are more likely to complete a task or having more academic success (Bandura, 1986; Zimmerman & Cleary, 2006). Results: The researcher surveyed online adult students at three different Jesuit colleges using the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSE; Schwarzer & Jerusalem, 1995) to determine their self-efficacy. Once the surveys were completed, the researcher interviewed a smaller portion of the students to understand their academic advising preferences. The students interviewed scored between moderate and high self-efficacy. The students who scored moderately reported that they preferred more hands-on help from their academic advisors such as helping with registration. While students with high self-efficacy reported a preference for bigger picture help from their advisors such as help with time management and/or career advice.Conclusion: From the results of this study a conclusion can be made that adult students can build self-efficacy by learning how to complete simple administrative tasks such as self-registration to become more self-sufficient. Students who have high self-efficacy may be more successful academically which could help with retention goals of the university. Therefore, with more research, and advising model for adult students could be developed to help build self-efficacy starting with smaller tasks and building up to bigger concepts.
