Hence they will have trouble attending the examinations held every semester. Therefore, this study will examine the perception and acceptance of distance learning students towards E-examination.

Therefore, this study is aimed to examine distance learning students’ level of E-examination acceptance. 148 year two students were surveyed, descriptive statistics was employed to determine students’ level of E-examination acceptance. The result indicated that distance learning students’ showed high level of acceptance to E-examination. Thus, E-examination should be fully implemented in Nigerian distance learning programs.
