      ab: The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted traditional classroom learning in Nigerian universities and prompted the adoption of e-learning as an alternative means of delivering academic content. This research paper aimed to explore the experience of undergraduate students in Nigerian universities during the post-COVID era, with a specific focus on the effectiveness of e-learning. This study employed a quantitative approach. The study population consisted of 237 undergraduate students from seven selected universities in Nigeria. The data was collected using a structured questionnaire. The findings of this study showed that while e-learning has its advantages, it also presents several challenges to undergraduate students in Nigerian universities. Some of the challenges include poor internet connectivity, lack of access to electronic devices, and insufficient training on how to use e-learning platforms. The study recommends that Nigerian universities and the government should invest in improving internet connectivity and power supply to support e-learning; and institutions should provide consistent and comprehensive technical support to all students, ensuring they have the necessary resources and assistance.
