The aim of this paper is to examine the relationship between general self esteem, estimated through the Rosenberg Self - Esteem Scale – RSE and adaptation to college, operationalized through the Student Adaptation to College Questionnaire – SACQ. Adaptation to college is assesed through four dimensions of adaptation: emotional, social, academic, and institutional. The study was conducted on a sample of 808 students (62.9% females; M = 21.88; SD = 2.35). The allocation of the students to a high/low self-esteem groups was estimated with discriminatory analysis of four modalities of adaptation. A significant discriminatory function that could be named as social-emotional adjustment was isolated. Around 17% of the overlap between adaptation and self-esteem was included. The students with higher self-esteem have statistically significantly higher level of adaptation to college than the students with lower self-esteem.
