Inadequate uptake of counseling services is considered as a major factor hindering high academic performance among undergraduate students in universities in Kenya. A study of the effectiveness of counseling services on academic performance of undergraduate students in selected universities in Kenya was undertaken with a sample size of 104 first year medical students as respondents. A quasi-experimental design was used. The study revealed that students who seek counselling services perform academically better than those who do not as determined by two-way ANOVA (F (1,96) = 4.441, p = .038). Counselling facilitated acquisition of problem-solving and study skills including time management that enabled the students to do well in their studies. Implications of these findings and recommendations for further research are discussed.
