Abstrakt: The COVID-19 crisis has drastically altered people's lives and livelihoods. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, online learning has been the standard for higher education institutions. The effects of the coronavirus pandemic and the resulting institution closures caused significant physical isolation among university students worldwide. This study aims to evaluate the perceived influence of COVID-19 productivity on undergraduate students of Mapúa University. The researchers used descriptive statistics to analyze data from a sample of 100 participants who completed an online survey that contained demographic profiles and academic information. Moreover, the researchers also utilized a paired sample t-test to measure the students' satisfaction with overall experiences in online and traditional face-to-face classes before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Four (4) factors were identified: workload, financial status, convenience, and technology use. As a result, researchers distinguished the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the productivity of undergraduate students at Mapúa University. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
