It was found that efforts of the Malaysian government, universities and educators to promote the Open and Distance Learning (ODL) were constrained and limited by numerous obstacles faced by the students. The main focus of this study was to identify the students’ setbacks to their learning outcomes. Questionnaires through Google Forms were distributed to 92 students from four different faculties in Jengka and Raub campuses. The objective was to find answers to these three questions: students’ physical obstacles, effectiveness of ODL and students’ emotional challenges. The findings concluded that these students were overwhelmed by both their coursework and also their lecturers. The lecturers’ expectation also played a big role in this difficult situation, forcing students to feel worried and pressured.
